Egbuka's 49.6% catch rate and unproven QB/OC are red flags despite WR15 ADP.

Emeka EgbukaWRTB

Despite finishing as WR21 in his rookie season with 127 targets, 63 receptions, 938 yards, and 6 TDs—comparable to elite second-year breakout candidates like Tyreek Hill, Cooper Kupp, and A.J. Brown—Jason Wood recommends passing on Egbuka at his WR15 ADP (late third round in 12-team leagues). His 49.6% catch rate is alarmingly low; he must prove he can handle man coverage; Baker Mayfield isn't a difference-maker; new OC Zac Robinson has much to prove after his Atlanta tenure; and the Buccaneers depth chart provides alternatives. While a Year Two breakout is possible, these red flags are enough to keep Wood from recommending him at his current cost.
