Less than three weeks from the draft, the Bucs have a gaping hole at running back. Let’s not try to pretend Jacquizz Rodgers, Charles Sims and Peyton Barber are going to strike fear in Tampa Bay opponents, forcing them to utilize eight men in the box.
You notice I haven’t mentioned Doug Martin. That’s not an oversight. (more…)
