He's a big fan. I'd be shocked if Tez didn't make the team at this point.

With Tez and Emeke I think we should start Godwin on the PUP.

If Godwin is healthy enough to play, you play him.  It's pretty simple.  We are better with him than we are without him, hence his contract.  Also, it's Emeka, in short order he has earned the correct spelling of his name. 

 

Tez is definitely making the team, team, not the practice squad.  He has embodied the hard work and dedication necessary to find a slot.  Our offense is really going to be eye popping.  Grizz>Coen

I would be absolutely shocked if we see Godwin before October.

Godwin isn't even running at TC? Or maybe he's now straight line no cut?

 

that's a long way to go

I think folks are wild to think he'll play week 1. I'd wager a lot he will be a week 5 at best play.

We drafted Emeka for a reason. 

Tez and Palmer will get some shots.

That's what I'm hearing. Taking it slow and his recovery has been super slow.

So they drafted Emeka to quell the absence of a pro bowl WR for 4 weeks of the season, after signing that receiver to a new contract??  Look man, that doesn't sorta make sense. Emeka was drafted because he's damn good and Mike/Chris wont be around forever.  

 

I have no idea when Chris will be back but as soon as he can you play him.

I was saying he’d start the season on the PUP back in May.

Don’t see (or have heard) any reason to see that changing. Would love to be wrong. 

That being said, Egbuka will fill the slot role nicely, and produce out of the gate.

Most likely sees the next highest volume of targets outside Evans.

In the end, Evans and Godwin won’t be around forever. Glad we’ve addressed it now, versus having to reach on need down the road.

Yep.  This is the luxury of having a QB we know we can count on and a full stable of running backs.  BPA is a beautiful thing. It's how you build for the long term.  Something we haven't really experienced in half a century as Buc's fans.

Emeka Egbuka is the best rookie wide receiver I have seen so far in my 30 years of Bucs coverage. The hype is justified. He looks like a veteran out there…

After Evans and Egbuka, Jalen McMillan and Tez Johnson are the next best receivers in camp. Those will be the top four receivers with Godwin likely to miss the start of the season on PUP.”

Love the potential with this group. Drafting a player like Egbuka gives you a few very valuable things past just the player that he is. Which is already a good player in his own right. It will give us a luxury of giving Godwin time to heal. With tez we can have some gimmicks on offense where he can really shine with his ability if he earns and is then given the opportunities to do what he does best. You can line him up in a mismatch opportunity where the defense has to pay attention to our top wrs. Loaded on offense. As long as baker can be efficient with the ball and he gets protection we can go far. Defense will need to help getting off the field.

Yeah with this WR group it opens up opportunities for the RBs and TEs.  I am eager to see what progress the young RBs and TEs can make year 2 in the same offense.  This might be the year we see Durham elevate his game to be on par with Otton or even Culp make a leap.

I think this was one of Licht's best draft classes. Sucks Walker got hurt

It does feel like this is Culp’s year to break out.
