TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS Roster Breakdown and TEAM NEEDS


TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (5-11)
Picks in first 3 rounds: 5, 39, 70
8 total picks

NEEDS: 
Pass Rusher: Jason Pierre Paul had a career revitalization last year but they need more from their pass rush in order to compete in a division with elite QBs like Drew Brees, Matt Ryan and Cam Newton
LB: They also need another LB to help out Lavonte David. 
Young Impact DB: Justin Evans, Carlton Davis and Vernon Hargreaves are solid building blocks. In a division with Cam Newton, Matt Ryan and Drew Brees you need impact defensive backs. 
DT: Rumors have franchise staple Gerald McCoy on the trading block. 
RB: They drafted Ronald Jones to be a starter but he was a huge disappointment as a rookie and Peyton Barber is a career backup. 
QB: They won't take one in the first round but this may be the last year that Winston is the starter in Tampa. 
Interior O-Line: Ali Marpet needs help inside
2020 KEY FREE AGENTS:
RT: Demar Dotson
QB: Jameis Winston
