Aside from the splash hire of head coach Bruce Arians to kick off the 2019 calendar year, everything else has been pretty quiet for the most part. Tampa Bay lost players in Kwon Alexander, DeSean Jackson, and Adam Humphries to free agency and filled holes with serviceable guys like Shaquil Barrett and Breshad Perriman among some others. But without a huge splash due to a lack of spending money, the fan base seems to feel “meh” at best so far.In the latest SB Nation FanPulse results http://www.buccaneerslockerroom.com/authentic-warren-sapp-jersey , 53-percent of the Buccaneers fans feel the team got better in free agency while 47-percent feel they did not. It’s pretty split, understandably so. However, when it comes to the division, there isn’t much support there. As you can see in the graphic below, the Bucs sit at the bottom of the NFC South for the favorites in the division.Those Saints numbers. Ugh...You’d have to hope that Arians will be able to turn things around quickly. If not, well, we’ll see more of the same results throughout the season. And you can’t blame the fans for feeling the way they do.No pressure, coach. Not much of a shock."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections 2016 NFL DraftInjuriesFree AgencyGame FilmWhat position for Tampa Bay is the weakest following the 2019 NFL Draft?New Adarius Glanton Jersey ,73commentsNot much of a shock.EDTShareTweetShareShareWhat position for Tampa Bay is the weakest following the 2019 NFL Draft?Kim Klement-USA TODAY SportsThe dust for the most part has settled regarding the Buccaneers 2019 draft class. The one thing we know for certain is the defense in 2019 is going to look a hell of a lot different than it did in 2018. Outside of selecting two offensive players in rounds five and six and one of them being a kicker, Tampa Bay used the remaining six picks to focus on the defensive side of the ball. The team drafted three secondary players, one linebacker and two defensive lineman in hopes of turning around what was one of the worst defenses in the league in 2018. With that being said, one major position of need was left off the Buccaneers draft class and that is the Right guard position. Last year, the Right guard position was an absolute disaster. No, seriously, it was a travesty. Caeb Benenoch’s play really effected the whole play of the offensive line, especially Ryan Jensen and Demar Dotson. All the Buccaneers have done since the end of the season to address the need is add Earl Watford in free agency to presumably compete with Alex Cappa for the starting job. Now Cameron Brate Jersey , no disrespect to either Cappa or Watford, but there were plenty of opportunities to upgrade that position in the draft and Tampa Bay elected not too, which is really a bit confusing to me. In an offense that requires the offensive line to be above average in pass blocking, it seems like the risk being taken here is to great. Maybe I will be proven wrong and Cappa, who was a third-round pick last year will take command of the position and show great progress from his rookie season, but to not draft any offensive lineman just doesn’t make sense.
