These players on the Bucs defense are hand picked by Bowles. Also, Bowles' job is to play to the strengths of the players he has to work with which i...
Bowles has to make a choice. If you want to employ bigger ends to stop the run then stop dropping them, Vea and Kancey into zone coverage. But if yo...
I do not think a stud edge rusher makes a difference because Bowles is still going to want to blitz. So you need players that can play in zone. Need ...
With a heavy zone defense you do not need elite players at safety or CB which is why Winfield Jr, Whitehead, Merriweather, Izien and Smith is more tha...

Smith is a clear starter at NCB because they felt that Izien wasn't good enough in the slot in 2023 which prompted the team to draft Smith in the firs...
Diaby had a high pressure rate. Braswell is not better and I doubt the Bucs can find two edge rush starters in one off season. Smith is prob...
Using draft resources on a back up QB works for some teams. But the Bucs have Pratt who they were prepared to draft at some point and now they have hi...
The third round is always insane value for WRs though. Licht will probably go back to that well again because Palmer/Johnson are just utility players ...
Coaching has to do with it too. Bucs coaching on offense is way better than the defense. Bucs sunk so many resources on defense and they are going...
Bucs OLB dropped too much into coverage so it is hard to say what is really going on with the OLB room to be honest.
Bucs have a super bowl caliber offense. All the Bucs defense had to do was force at least 2 punts and the Bucs offense would have scored on at least ...
Barton definitely outplayed Seattle's Olu Oluwatimi for example and many other young centers so that ranking of 45th best is very dubious to say the l...
