We 0:00:14.200 --> 0:00:17.200 are over here at Raymond James Stadium in the Control room. 0:00:17.239 --> 0:00:20.239 This is where they control everything that happens in the 0:00:20.280 --> 0:00:22.560 stadium on game day, on all the video boards, all 0:00:22.560 --> 0:00:24.600 the sound, you hear everything. And now they are helping 0:00:24.800 --> 0:00:27.600 us take Buccaneers Inside of Live to the next level. 0:00:27.680 --> 0:00:29.680 So now we're gonna have graphics, We're gonna have video 0:00:29.720 --> 0:00:32.080 for you guys, and still as always, we're gonna be 0:00:32.080 --> 0:00:35.160 taking your Facebook questions, so make sure you submit those 0:00:35.240 --> 0:00:38.160 now on the Buccaneers Facebook page in the comment section. 0:00:38.200 --> 0:00:40.200 That's where you can leave it for us to find 0:00:40.240 --> 0:00:42.319 for the end of the show, so as we give 0:00:42.360 --> 0:00:44.559 people a chance to start submitting some of those Some 0:00:44.640 --> 0:00:48.920 big news, of course, happened yesterday, So Chris Godwin franchise 0:00:49.000 --> 0:00:51.279 tagged first of all, just tell me your thoughts on that, 0:00:51.360 --> 0:00:54.480 what that means for this team and that decision, well, clearly, 0:00:54.520 --> 0:00:57.520 somewhere along the lines, as we headed up to free agency, uh, 0:00:57.880 --> 0:01:00.840 the team decided they just could not bear using Chris Godwin, 0:01:00.880 --> 0:01:03.040 and you can understand why if you just watch a 0:01:03.080 --> 0:01:05.280 couple of our games, because he's just so integral to 0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:07.760 the offense in every way. But you know, yesterday at 0:01:07.760 --> 0:01:10.880 four pm Eastern Time was the deadline for that franchise 0:01:10.920 --> 0:01:12.959 tag to be placed, and the Bucks pretty much went 0:01:13.040 --> 0:01:14.800 right up to the deadline. And what that tells you 0:01:14.880 --> 0:01:17.240 is there was an effort to try to keep Chris 0:01:17.240 --> 0:01:19.400 Godwin on a long term deal, which I'm sure both 0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:21.440 sides would love if they can come to the right terms. 0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:24.080 But here's the thing that's important to realize. Getting the 0:01:24.080 --> 0:01:26.600 franchise tag putting place in the franchise tag on Chris 0:01:26.800 --> 0:01:30.880 does not end the necessary does not necessarily end negotiations 0:01:31.040 --> 0:01:33.640 until he signs it. Until or if he signs it, 0:01:33.959 --> 0:01:36.039 you can continue to negotiate with him. So basically, it's 0:01:36.080 --> 0:01:39.839 just extending your exclusive window and hopefully that's what happens. 0:01:39.880 --> 0:01:41.720 I think both sides would like to see it get there. 0:01:41.920 --> 0:01:44.080 And if that's the case, then all the franchise tag 0:01:44.080 --> 0:01:46.679 did was extend that window. And the I guess the 0:01:46.680 --> 0:01:48.480 only reason you'd try to get it done before the 0:01:48.520 --> 0:01:51.080 four cock deadline was if maybe you wanted to use 0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:52.840 the franchise tag on a different player, but we didn't 0:01:52.880 --> 0:01:54.720 hear any rumors of that in the first place. So 0:01:54.760 --> 0:01:56.840 I think this is just a pretty good turn of 0:01:56.880 --> 0:01:59.320 events overall, and it a speaks to how much they 0:01:59.440 --> 0:02:01.440 value Chris on one, but then also maybe to your 0:02:01.440 --> 0:02:04.480 point that it means they're confident about getting long term 0:02:04.480 --> 0:02:06.120 deals with a lot of the other free agents they 0:02:06.120 --> 0:02:08.560 would care a lot about is compared to the feeling like, 0:02:08.560 --> 0:02:10.440 oh my gosh, we need to use this franchise tag. 0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:11.960 There's all these people that are going to need this. 0:02:12.120 --> 0:02:14.880 And Bruce Arian said at the comment that he doesn't 0:02:14.919 --> 0:02:16.880 like the word rebuild. I don't think they feel like 0:02:16.880 --> 0:02:19.120 they're in the rebuild, even though obviously you have to 0:02:19.160 --> 0:02:21.720 come up with a new answer at the most important 0:02:21.720 --> 0:02:24.600 position with Tom Brady's retirement. But this is a team 0:02:24.680 --> 0:02:27.839 that still believes it's very talented in many ways. And yeah, 0:02:27.840 --> 0:02:29.600 you were talking about all the different free agents that 0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:33.000 the Buccaneers have, Uh, Chris Godwin fortunately is no longer 0:02:33.040 --> 0:02:35.000 on that list. But you see another what is that 0:02:35.120 --> 0:02:38.720 ten guys who playoffs included started at least ten games 0:02:38.720 --> 0:02:41.760 for the Buccaneers last year, including two of the five 0:02:41.760 --> 0:02:44.720 starting offensive linemen, and that's without even listing Ali Marpett, 0:02:44.760 --> 0:02:46.320 who has retired. So there's a lot of work to 0:02:46.320 --> 0:02:48.880 do then. But getting back to Chris Godwin for a second, 0:02:49.400 --> 0:02:52.000 I said briefly that he was integral to the offense, 0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:54.840 and that's that's the thing that makes him so valuable. 0:02:54.919 --> 0:02:56.960 You know, you're already spending quite a bit of money 0:02:56.960 --> 0:02:59.760 on your other starting receiver who's fantastic and the best 0:02:59.800 --> 0:03:02.360 off into player in team history and Mike Evans, so 0:03:02.440 --> 0:03:05.240 to spend another very large amount on another receiver isn't 0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:08.280 necessarily common, but he does so much for the Bucks. 0:03:08.320 --> 0:03:11.600 Since Bruce Arians got here and emphasized using Chris Godwin 0:03:11.639 --> 0:03:14.080 out of the slot, he has had he's been one 0:03:14.080 --> 0:03:16.200 of the most productive players in the entire league. As 0:03:16.200 --> 0:03:18.560 you can see here just working out of the slot. 0:03:18.600 --> 0:03:21.720 That's yards per game in his last three years while 0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:23.840 in the slot. And that's not all that Chris Godwin does. 0:03:23.880 --> 0:03:26.320 He works on the outside as well. About fifty of 0:03:26.360 --> 0:03:29.120 his snaps last year we're in the slot, but he 0:03:29.160 --> 0:03:32.079 also produced a total of ninety eight catches even after 0:03:32.120 --> 0:03:34.600 missing the last three games. And then also it goes 0:03:34.639 --> 0:03:37.360 even beyond that because the Bucks run the ball a 0:03:37.360 --> 0:03:39.480 lot better when Chris Godden was on the field. We've 0:03:39.480 --> 0:03:41.960 all seen plenty of times our coaches talk about how 0:03:41.960 --> 0:03:44.320 important he is to the blocking schemes, and I'm just 0:03:44.320 --> 0:03:46.640 just talking about, you know, holding up corners on the outside. 0:03:46.640 --> 0:03:48.839 He'll line up tight, he'll come in motion, line up tight, 0:03:48.960 --> 0:03:51.640 he'll block a defensive end, he'll block an outside linebacker. 0:03:51.880 --> 0:03:54.240 And look at this when chriss is According to NFL 0:03:54.360 --> 0:03:56.520 Next Gen Stats, when Chris god has been on the 0:03:56.520 --> 0:03:58.400 field in the last two years, are running backs at 0:03:58.400 --> 0:04:00.480 average four point five yards per carry. When he's not 0:04:00.560 --> 0:04:03.000 in there three point seven. That's a big difference. Is 0:04:03.080 --> 0:04:05.360 you can see why he's so important to me, and 0:04:05.400 --> 0:04:07.680 I think that is one of the most underrated aspects 0:04:07.680 --> 0:04:10.280 of it, and and also speaks so much to Godwin's 0:04:10.680 --> 0:04:12.400 character that he is the kind of guy that will 0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:14.040 do whatever is asked of him, and that is a 0:04:14.120 --> 0:04:17.279 coach's dream and why it is not just about hey, 0:04:17.600 --> 0:04:20.240 he can catch that football, which he can. He makes 0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:22.960 this team better in every way. And also it's just 0:04:23.000 --> 0:04:25.120 such a pillar of the locker room and in the community. 0:04:25.160 --> 0:04:26.880 I mean, he's just they say that it's almost like 0:04:26.920 --> 0:04:30.400 if you could build an NFL player, Chris God is 0:04:30.440 --> 0:04:31.960 everything you want in a player. And like you said, 0:04:32.240 --> 0:04:34.560 coaches like to use the phrase, he'll put his face 0:04:34.600 --> 0:04:36.720 in the fan. That means he'll get in there and 0:04:36.760 --> 0:04:38.280 block a defense. And if he has he's not just 0:04:38.320 --> 0:04:41.240 gonna cut you know, Patty, He's going to actually put 0:04:41.279 --> 0:04:42.719 his face in the fan and try to block that guy. 0:04:42.760 --> 0:04:44.720 That's amazing. And well, we also were at the Combine 0:04:44.960 --> 0:04:46.720 last week, so we wanted to chat a little bit 0:04:46.720 --> 0:04:48.719 about that. We did do an Insider Alive from the 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:50.400 Combine where we talked a little bit more about it. 0:04:50.440 --> 0:04:52.640 But there was one thing in particular that happened after 0:04:52.680 --> 0:04:54.920 we had done our Insider Live that you wanted to 0:04:54.960 --> 0:04:56.840 bring up, and that was the big man that got 0:04:56.839 --> 0:04:58.880 a lot of attention based on his death. Well, there 0:04:58.880 --> 0:05:01.960 were two Base six themes throughout the week. One of 0:05:02.000 --> 0:05:05.080 them was that the receivers ran incredibly fast. There's a 0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:09.160 ton of fast receivers available this year. But also every 0:05:09.160 --> 0:05:12.040 player from Georgia was an absolute star. I mean, George's defense, 0:05:12.279 --> 0:05:14.240 if you watch any college football, is obviously the best 0:05:14.240 --> 0:05:16.800 defense in all of football, all of college football last 0:05:16.839 --> 0:05:18.440 year and now a bunch of those guys are in 0:05:18.480 --> 0:05:20.880 the draft and they all just blew away the combine. 0:05:21.080 --> 0:05:23.160 But most of all, there's usually at least one guy 0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:25.560 who's like the toll star of the combine. That guy 0:05:25.680 --> 0:05:28.320 this year was their defensive lineman, the Georgia defensive lineman, 0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:33.680 Jordan Davis, who absolutely blew away uh the four yard dash, 0:05:33.880 --> 0:05:36.280 the bench press. But it made me think about just 0:05:36.320 --> 0:05:38.360 a couple of years ago when everybody's saying the same 0:05:38.400 --> 0:05:40.080 thing about Vita Via and if you look at these 0:05:40.160 --> 0:05:42.600 numbers from their their combines, they're pretty close. I mean, 0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:45.720 the Vita is actually bigger, or was at the time. Uh, 0:05:45.760 --> 0:05:48.400 he actually did more bench press reps. And Jordan Davis, 0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:50.800 who tied for the league this year among all players 0:05:50.839 --> 0:05:53.960 with thirty two and looked Vita did four. He won. Now, 0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:57.760 Jordan Davis clearly was faster, but even for uh the 0:05:57.800 --> 0:05:59.680 size that Vita is five point one. Oh, was a 0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:02.120 great fortyr dash, really open eyes at the time. So 0:06:02.160 --> 0:06:04.400 now look at Jordan Davis, almost the same size running 0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:06.919 a four seven six. I mean that's about what Jerry 0:06:06.960 --> 0:06:09.280 Rice ran at his combine. It's incredible. There's a there's 0:06:09.320 --> 0:06:11.120 a couple of running backs at this year's combine that 0:06:11.200 --> 0:06:12.800 ran the same thing. So the guy stream in forty 0:06:12.839 --> 0:06:14.720 pounds and he's running like a running back. That's incredible, 0:06:14.720 --> 0:06:16.440 and it does make you remember how fortunate we are 0:06:16.440 --> 0:06:18.599 to have you to and thankfully that his name is 0:06:19.000 --> 0:06:20.960 not on the free agent list, and there's a deal. 0:06:21.000 --> 0:06:22.760 We know that name won't be on the list for 0:06:22.760 --> 0:06:24.240 a while. We got that deal with him, which is 0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:25.600 really great. All right, Well, we are going to turn 0:06:25.640 --> 0:06:28.279 our attention now to your Facebook question. So again, if 0:06:28.320 --> 0:06:30.080 you haven't submitted that yet, make sure you do on 0:06:30.080 --> 0:06:33.320 the Buccaneers Facebook page in the comments section. So our 0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:37.599 first one is from Zachary And look at how fancy 0:06:37.640 --> 0:06:38.640 we are. We can even put it up on the 0:06:39.120 --> 0:06:40.560 Look at that what about four nete. Well that's straight 0:06:40.560 --> 0:06:43.080 into the point. Yeah, very to the point. I appreciate that. Well, 0:06:43.080 --> 0:06:45.400 he was on that list we showed, so he's definitely 0:06:45.800 --> 0:06:48.080 a free agent that the Buccaneers have to decide what 0:06:48.080 --> 0:06:50.560 they're gonna do with. You know, he played last year 0:06:50.880 --> 0:06:53.159 after he sort of had a little career renaissance when 0:06:53.160 --> 0:06:55.599 he got cut by the Jaguars, came to the Bucks 0:06:55.640 --> 0:06:58.000 right before the season, didn't really take over the lead 0:06:58.080 --> 0:07:00.320 role from Ronald Jones most of the year, than Jones 0:07:00.400 --> 0:07:02.600 had some injury and COVID issues at the end, and 0:07:02.640 --> 0:07:04.000 he got the lead role at the end. It was 0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:06.560 just an absolute monster in the playoffs and probably thought 0:07:06.600 --> 0:07:08.200 there was gonna be more of a market for him 0:07:08.520 --> 0:07:11.640 last year in free agency, but it never really materialized. 0:07:11.680 --> 0:07:13.600 So he came back with a one year deal with 0:07:13.600 --> 0:07:15.520 the Bucks and showed that his stuff in the playffs 0:07:15.520 --> 0:07:17.200 the year before wasn't a fluke. He became a very 0:07:17.200 --> 0:07:20.080 important part of this offense. So the Buckner's obviously have 0:07:20.240 --> 0:07:22.480 to um really think hard about how hard they're going 0:07:22.520 --> 0:07:23.680 to try to go after learning for that. And it 0:07:23.720 --> 0:07:27.240 will be interesting this interesting to see. It's too fancy 0:07:27.240 --> 0:07:30.520 in here, That's what It'll be interesting to see if 0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:33.320 if there is more of a market for his services 0:07:33.400 --> 0:07:36.240 this year, and if there ever really is going to 0:07:36.280 --> 0:07:38.720 be big market for running backs again. You know, you 0:07:38.800 --> 0:07:41.320 see a big contract every now and then, usually like 0:07:41.320 --> 0:07:44.080 a Christian McCaffrey with the team that they're already on. UM. 0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:46.240 You don't really see a lot of guys hit it 0:07:46.320 --> 0:07:48.400 big in free agency at the running back position. But 0:07:48.600 --> 0:07:50.640 you know, he's still in his prime. He's he's i 0:07:50.640 --> 0:07:53.800 think four or five years into his career. Uh, he 0:07:53.880 --> 0:07:55.720 probably deserves a pretty good contract. We'll see if the 0:07:55.720 --> 0:07:57.440 Buccaneers can make it work out. I've always thought that 0:07:57.520 --> 0:07:59.760 was so interesting that the conventional wisdom always said that 0:07:59.800 --> 0:08:02.560 it was bad to draft running back so high because 0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:05.200 you can find them later or than the idea of 0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:06.960 the free agent part. But it's like, man, if if 0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:10.160 you don't feel like that second you know contract is 0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:13.160 as reliable for running backs, maybe you should just go 0:08:13.240 --> 0:08:14.960 after them in the draft. That It's just an interesting 0:08:15.000 --> 0:08:17.120 thing of all the ways that our views of how 0:08:17.160 --> 0:08:19.520 to find a good running back and how much value 0:08:19.520 --> 0:08:21.080 to place in it, either in the draft or in 0:08:21.120 --> 0:08:23.800 free agency, is so interesting. Yeah, I think you could 0:08:23.800 --> 0:08:26.280 probably do a strategy like that as a team. It's 0:08:26.320 --> 0:08:28.600 just as long as you can at least sort of hit. 0:08:28.880 --> 0:08:31.000 You could draft a first or second running round running 0:08:31.040 --> 0:08:33.240 back every four years and to just plan on not 0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:35.800 having the second contract with that guy. But it gets 0:08:35.800 --> 0:08:37.960 a little more difficult when that guy has performed for 0:08:37.960 --> 0:08:40.760 you really well and you see, well he really fits 0:08:40.760 --> 0:08:42.920 into our offense. He does a lot of things well 0:08:42.960 --> 0:08:45.160 that we want to do, and if we don't resign them. 0:08:45.160 --> 0:08:47.000 We got to find another guy and that's that is 0:08:47.040 --> 0:08:50.240 a lot easier so than done. Alright, our next question, uh, 0:08:50.280 --> 0:08:52.440 where did it go? Here? We go? All right, Robert 0:08:52.600 --> 0:08:55.440 wants to know, are we trying to keep Kappa and Jensen? 0:08:55.880 --> 0:08:57.520 I would think I would think so for sure, and 0:08:57.640 --> 0:08:59.880 especially now that Alan marp Pett is retired, and and 0:09:00.000 --> 0:09:01.600 those two things may go hand in hand. You know, 0:09:01.679 --> 0:09:04.760 there there are some cap and cash savings with Ali's retirement, 0:09:04.800 --> 0:09:06.719 and that could make it easier for the Buccaneers to 0:09:06.760 --> 0:09:09.840 try to bring Alex Kappa and or Ryan Jensen back. 0:09:09.920 --> 0:09:13.480 But you know, at the combine, both Bruce Arians and 0:09:13.559 --> 0:09:17.120 Jason Light really stressed how important it is to keep 0:09:17.160 --> 0:09:19.280 the offensive line strong. And they felt like they have 0:09:19.400 --> 0:09:22.200 some pieces, uh that could do that even if you 0:09:22.240 --> 0:09:24.400 lose what you did lose allimor Pett, even if you 0:09:24.440 --> 0:09:26.160 lose another one of these guys or both of them, 0:09:26.160 --> 0:09:28.920 they got some options, but they stressed how important it 0:09:29.000 --> 0:09:31.040 is to keep that offensive line strong. So when you 0:09:31.120 --> 0:09:33.040 look at that free agent list that was just up 0:09:33.040 --> 0:09:34.840 on the screen, you know, I have the top two 0:09:34.880 --> 0:09:37.080 guys on now it's ranked by it's ordered by how 0:09:37.080 --> 0:09:38.439 many starts they did last year. But you see the 0:09:38.480 --> 0:09:40.640 first two names up there are offensive lineman and I 0:09:40.679 --> 0:09:43.360 could see the Buccaneers looking the same way at their 0:09:43.400 --> 0:09:45.360 list and putting it in the same order because that's 0:09:45.360 --> 0:09:47.600 the top priority. Yeah, absolutely, all right. Our next one 0:09:47.679 --> 0:09:49.720 is from Richard. He says, out of all the other 0:09:49.760 --> 0:09:52.120 free agents, I think it means outside of Godwin, who 0:09:52.200 --> 0:09:54.680 is the most important to resign? Well, I think Jensen 0:09:54.679 --> 0:09:56.040 would be a big one. Can we see the list 0:09:56.040 --> 0:10:00.480 again so I can be reminded, um, Jensen or Kappa? Uh. 0:10:00.520 --> 0:10:02.959 You know, Jordan Whitehead had a really really nice year 0:10:03.040 --> 0:10:06.560 last year and um, and he's become one of the 0:10:06.559 --> 0:10:08.800 best safeties around the line scrimmage, you know, and in 0:10:08.880 --> 0:10:11.240 the box kind of safety, A real enforcer. Whenever he's 0:10:11.240 --> 0:10:13.520 close to line of scrimmage. He makes an impact almost 0:10:13.520 --> 0:10:16.000 all the time. Uh. I would hate to lose him. 0:10:16.480 --> 0:10:19.040 Although there is some depth at safety with Mike Edwards 0:10:19.200 --> 0:10:22.320 and then Carlton Davis, the important number for him there 0:10:22.679 --> 0:10:25.000 is that twelve. He missed seven games last year and 0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:27.560 he's had trouble playing a full season. He's had some 0:10:27.600 --> 0:10:30.920 injury issues and at the combine, both Bruce Arians and 0:10:31.040 --> 0:10:33.640 Jason Light praised him for being a very good player, 0:10:33.640 --> 0:10:35.400 but they both did mentioned he's like he's a he's 0:10:35.400 --> 0:10:37.920 a really good player when he's on the field. You know, 0:10:38.040 --> 0:10:39.760 he's he's had some injury issues and that has to 0:10:39.760 --> 0:10:42.000 be factored in. But on the other hand, you have 0:10:42.040 --> 0:10:45.319 a quarterback when he is on the field, has been mentioned, 0:10:45.320 --> 0:10:47.000 as Bruce Arians has mentioned, and he thinks he's one 0:10:47.040 --> 0:10:48.640 of the best corners in the league. So you know, 0:10:48.679 --> 0:10:50.720 you've got the two issues there, how good he is, 0:10:50.720 --> 0:10:52.600 but how availably he is, and but he's still an 0:10:52.600 --> 0:10:54.880 important player in our defense. Okay, Well we will close 0:10:54.880 --> 0:10:57.760 out with this one. S I said, Oh, I've clicked 0:10:57.760 --> 0:11:00.400 the wrong one sometime. We're not doing that. There go Sin, 0:11:00.600 --> 0:11:02.280 We're not gonna do that or get Russell. I don't 0:11:02.320 --> 0:11:05.280 know what's happening, but we're having our first technical issues 0:11:05.320 --> 0:11:07.120 all day. It was our first try. I know. Well, 0:11:07.160 --> 0:11:09.640 here's the thing, east Side, Yeah, I can just eat it. 0:11:09.760 --> 0:11:11.120 I can just read it here east I said, what 0:11:11.160 --> 0:11:13.240 are the top needs in the draft or are we 0:11:13.280 --> 0:11:16.880 going for best player available? Well, Bruce has said. Bruce 0:11:16.880 --> 0:11:18.440 Arians has said that they're in position to go for 0:11:18.480 --> 0:11:21.480 best player available and really they were in that position 0:11:22.040 --> 0:11:24.280 last year. Remember when we re signed, everybody had all 0:11:24.320 --> 0:11:28.079 the starters and regulars back from the championship team, and 0:11:28.400 --> 0:11:31.640 you really could have the luxury of picking like a 0:11:31.679 --> 0:11:33.920 defensive end even though you already have to, or outside linebacker, 0:11:33.960 --> 0:11:36.000 even though you already have two starters. They're taking a 0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:38.360 quarterback in the second round. Those were what you might 0:11:38.360 --> 0:11:41.040 call luxury picks. I don't know for in the exact 0:11:41.120 --> 0:11:42.800 same position this year. So I think when you when 0:11:42.800 --> 0:11:44.439 it comes down to it to pick twenty seven, if 0:11:44.440 --> 0:11:47.400 that's where we stay, that it will be best player available, 0:11:47.800 --> 0:11:51.320 sort of best player available at a position that the 0:11:51.320 --> 0:11:53.680 Buckets could probably use some help at. And the most 0:11:53.679 --> 0:11:56.760 obvious one now is is the inside of the interior 0:11:56.800 --> 0:11:59.480 line of the offensive line. With Ali's retirement and not 0:11:59.600 --> 0:12:03.119 only Kappa and Jensen, but also Aaron Stinny potential undrestricted 0:12:03.160 --> 0:12:05.080 free agents. We talked a lot about how we're hoping 0:12:05.080 --> 0:12:07.360 to get all those guys back, but it's not a guarantee, 0:12:07.480 --> 0:12:09.439 so you could end up needing your replace anywhere from 0:12:09.440 --> 0:12:12.240 one to three starters between your two tackles, and and 0:12:12.280 --> 0:12:15.760 that obviously makes it something that should probably be uh 0:12:15.800 --> 0:12:17.840 addressed in the draft. Other than that, I would also 0:12:17.880 --> 0:12:20.240 look at maybe running back if Leonard Fournette doesn't come back, 0:12:20.520 --> 0:12:23.520 and cornerback if Carlton Davis doesn't come back. And even 0:12:23.520 --> 0:12:26.319 if Carlton Davis does come back, you know what I'm 0:12:26.320 --> 0:12:28.680 gonna say, enough you can never get enough good. And 0:12:28.720 --> 0:12:30.480 we saw that again last year. We had so much 0:12:30.520 --> 0:12:33.000 trouble with the injuries. Last year very much made you 0:12:33.040 --> 0:12:37.000 look like a little nos John. You're signing guys off 0:12:37.000 --> 0:12:40.520 the street and then they're getting hurt. Um So, cornerback, 0:12:40.679 --> 0:12:42.000 if you could get a cornerback at the end of 0:12:42.000 --> 0:12:44.400 the first round, I would never complain about that. You'll 0:12:44.400 --> 0:12:46.400 find a way to use that guy absolutely all right, Well, 0:12:46.400 --> 0:12:47.480 that is going to do it for us. On this 0:12:47.600 --> 0:12:50.280 edition of Buccaneers Insider Live presented by Miller Lite, Thank 0:12:50.320 --> 0:12:52.040 you guys so much for joining us, and we'll see 0:12:52.040 --> 0:12:57.000 you next week.
