True but they need depth.
One more point is that the middle of the defense was a weakness last year not really because a lack of talent. A year before Winfield Jr and Britt we...
Yeah the play calling was the biggest issue on defense last season and not a lack of talent. No one expected the Bucs to be an elite defensive unit b...

Of course because Licht is the GM and he can not tip his hand. But Bowles has been vocal along with Licht about Dean missing time. If the Bucs do n...
Bowles emphasizes that he wants more depth but will GM Licht agree with trading down? Licht's job is to construct a roster under salary cap constrai...
Licht says the Bucs depth at CB is good but Bowles says the Bucs need more depth at CB. GM and HC do not always agree so there is that.
