Grueling Truth

● By Samuel Teets
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have everything. They’re Super Bowl champions that somehow retained all of their contributors, except for Antonio Brown, in an offseason where contending teams bled veteran contracts for cap space. Bruce Arians and Tom Brady seem primed for another title run, and a draft class full of immediate contributors could boost their cause. Many fans believe Brady’s Buccaneers peaked late in the regular season, heading into the playoffs. I’d argue they peaked after the season ended, when general manager Jason Licht executed a masterful offseason plan that brought back multiple All-Pros while still leaving Tampa Bay financial wiggle room. I wonder what the front office will do for an encore.
