Cornerback Carlton Davis.

Week 1 starter.
Bucs quarterback Baker Mayfield has been around the NFL block a few times. In a big-picture view, that’s not always a good thing for the 28-year old Bucs signal-caller. [read more]

Jason Licht type.
Maybe it is a good thing Bucs Hall of Famer Rondé Barber and Jason Licht are such good friends. Joe doesn’t think too many of the Bucs’ pen and mic club would get away with sternly directing the AC/DC-loving general manager to be straight with him (or her) on a live broadcast. [read more]

Rookie first-round pick Calijah Kancey.
Cuts are in! The Buccaneers’ 53-man roster is set, including 13 rookies! At least for today. There’s still lots of time for Tampa Bay general manager Jason Licht to make additions and subtractions.

Skeptics abound.

Upgrade.
Last year when you got past Mike Evans and Chris Godwin (and Playoff Lenny!) there was a pretty big dropoff in production from wide receivers. [read more]

Has words for naysayers.
Joe brings this up a lot partly because it sort of blows Joe’s mind. [read more]

Caught in a trap?

Played in similar offense.
One reason Joe thought Baker Mayfield might be a savvy, buy-low-sell-high investment was where Mayfield played last season. [read more]
