Photo Credit: WTB StaffI watched yet another preview on our Buccaneers today (Baldy) and again saw the lamentation about our offensive line. Now I was not quiet last season about how the line took a few steps backward. (Note: I am not normally quiet). That said, the building blocks were and are there. This offseason, many pundits had OL …Read More
Football seems to be right around the corner. The Buccaneers have now wrapped up OTA’s and Mini Camp. Next up is a much deserved 6 week rest period. After that rest, it is back to the grind in late July when it officially becomes the “Hard Knock” life for these Bucs. The best we have to …Read More

Photo Credit: Buccaneers.comHappy Fourth of July, everyone. I hope you and yours have a safe and pleasant holiday weekend. While many are thinking about barbecue and freedom, I’m thinking of a different type of fireworks – the ones that Jameis Winston and the boys will start throwing in a few weeks. We’ve all been hearing the buzz. …Read More
I am faced with a few complications as far as keeping up to date with the Bucs news in the UK. Distance is obviously a big one, 4454 miles to be precise from door to door. Then there is the time difference, Tampa is 5 hours behind the city I live in. Twitter helps bridge some …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
The next subject of my “Welcome Aboard” series isn’t exactly a new player to the Bucs, but he is a new player to the offensive line. J.R. Sweezy has been raising eyebrows and turning heads during OTA’s for his nastiness and tenacity as a blocker. Let’s just hope that he can stay healthy and pick …Read More
