Odell Beckham didn't play much in the divisional round, with Baltimore instead leaning on Rashod Bateman and Nelson Agholor alongside No. 1 receiver Zay Flowers.
Facing a tough defense with the bull's eye on him, Sunday's showdown with Buffalo will help clarify just how good Rashee Rice can be.
Latest Fantasy Rumors
Should be highly coveted free agent
Dean is designated by Field Yates of ESPN.com as a pending free agent that should draw plenty of interest.
ANALYSIS
Dean is considered the best cover cornerback available in this year's free-agent class after recording seven interceptions and breaking up 41 passes overall across 57 games over the last four seasons in Tampa Bay. Dean allowed a completion percentage of 54.1 percent or lower in primary coverage during that span as well, and the combination of his 6-foot-1 frame and the fact he's 26 years old only adds to his appeal.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2021
Dean was an integral part of a Buccaneers defense that finished with the ninth-fewest passing yards per game allowed in 2022 (208.8). He recorded the second-most tackles of his career (57), equaled his career best with two interceptions and gave up just a 45.0 completion percentage in primary coverage. Dean also has at least eight pass breakups in three of his first four seasons, and the 53.5 QBR he surrendered a season ago was the second lowest of his career. With 57 games of experience and a reputation for durability, Dean could make for a solid IDP option in 2023.
