FINALLY! Bucs training camp is opened this week with the first practice open to the public being on Friday. I already released an article similar to this back in May, but a lot has changed since then. Some releases and additions have changed the 90-man roster a bit so I wanted to take another look …Read More
The next installment of my “Welcome Aboard” series is an interesting story about another one of the Buccaneers rookies that most of you probably haven’t even heard of yet. Eric Nzeocha has had a long journey on his way to Tampa Bay and he’s got a long ways to go, but he’s been given an amazing opportunity …Read More
This next installment of my “Welcome Aboard” series is about one of the unsung workhorses of any NFL offense, the fullback. Quayvon Hicks is one of two fullbacks currently on the Bucs roster for training camp, but there are no guarantees that he’ll make the team. He’s not only competing with veteran Austin Johnson but …Read More
The next installment of my “Welcome Aboard” series about another rookie undrafted free agent signed by the Buccaneers right after the 2017 NFL Draft. Jesus “BoBo” Wilson is a former Florida State Seminole and has been reunited with his former college quarterback and current Bucs quarterback Jameis Winston. He’s hoping that the familiarity and chemistry between …Read More
This next installment of my “Welcome Aboard” series is about undrafted free agent safety Alex Gray. Safety is going to be an interesting position to watch in training camp as the Bucs currently have 6 safeties on their 90-man camp roster. Three of those six, Chris Conte, Keith Tandy and J.J. Wilcox, have NFL experience while two …Read More
This next installment of my “Welcome Aboard” series is another feel good story about one of the Bucs rookie players. Evan Panfil was one of the 26 free agents invited to camp tryouts and was the ONLY one of them to receive a contract offer from the team. He’s a longshot to get one of …Read More
Next up in my “Welcome Aboard” series is another standout from the Canadian Football League in wide receiver Derel Walker. The 6’1″/190lb speedster is a former teammate of Bucs superstar wide receiver Mike Evans at Texas A&M and will be in training camp fighting for one of the receiver positions on the team. Walker transferred to A&M from Trinity Valley …Read More
Continuing my “Welcome Aboard” series, this next piece is about recently signed linebacker Jeff Knox from the Canadian Football League. This isn’t the first time the Bucs have gone up north to find talent. In fact, they also signed wide receiver Derel Walker from up there too. The last time the Buccaneers signed a linebacker …Read More
My next “Welcome Aboard” installment will feature another lesser known addition to the Bucs but one that could make just as much of an impact, if not more than the player in my first segment. He’s well kept Canadian secret, tight end Antony Auclair. With the exception of the butthurt FSU homers still ranting about the Bucs NOT taking …Read More
Now that the Bucs 90-man camp roster is pretty much set (there will always be little tweaks here and there, but for the most part it’s set), I decided to take a closer look at this group and see where the interesting position battles will be during training camp. There are a ton of them! …Read More
