New Bucs ILB Christian Rozeboom brings more passion to the LB room.

Two down, one to go.

Joe has typed almost daily since the end of the season that the Bucs need to add no less than three inside linebackers to the roster in the offseason, whether Lavonte David returned or not.

So this month the Bucs signed Alex Anzalone and yesterday Christian Rozeboom, who has a fair amount of starting experience under his belt, including starting 16 games for the NFC South champion Stinking Panthers last year (including Carolina’s playoff loss to Los Angeles).

And Joe suspects the Bucs will draft an inside linebacker next month in the draft.

Why three inside linebackers, even if David may return? The Bucs had to make sure the only way SirVocea Dennis sees the field is either on special teams or if three or four guys ahead of him on the depth chart can’t answer the ball.

It seems this Rozeboom has some fire in him. That is also good. The Bucs’ defense was so soft last year. The Bucs needed more players with fire and brimstone like A’Shawn Robinson and Anzalone. Bad enough the Bucs’ defense was soft last year — and yes, Joe thought many defenders quit on Bucs coach Todd Bowles.

So now, with the addition of Rozeboom, who Joe hopes lowers the boom on opposing players, Joe wonders which inside linebacker the Bucs will draft next month?
