Fantasy Football site KFFL.com has come out with their list of “Overvalued Fantasy Players” for the 2007 season.  Bills WR Lee Evans is the #2 WR on their list of Overvalued Players.  Below are the comments on Evans:    

Lee Evans, Buffalo Bills

Fantasy owners need to be wary about Lee Evans’ breakout season being a sign for better things to come. Although he caught 82 balls for 1,292 yards and eight touchdowns, it can also be recognized that 265 of those yards and two of those touchdowns occurred in one game. Without that spectacular performance, his numbers are less impressive. Critics also say that this is the Lee Evans that the Bills expected to see when he entered the league and that his failure to show up until now is a cause for caution until he proves more consistent. Quarterback J.P. Losman will also need to prove that he can get the ball to Evans on a regular basis as it will get more difficult as teams will be keying in on Evans as the Bills’ go-to receiver. He also does not have the size of a typical No. 1 receiver; he could struggle against the increased double teams and added contact that comes with being the main offensive threat. He looks more like a strong No. 2 fantasy receiver than a No. 1 option.
