We’ve gone through half of the Buccaneers free agents so far, attempting to understand what the Bucs will do with them once the time approaches. Now, we dive in to the rest.

Some of the more prominent names as far as Buccaneers pending free agents are concerned appear here. We covered Vincent Jackson, Gosder Cherilus, Chris Conte, Bradley McDougald, Daryl Smith, Brandon Myers, Josh Robinson, and Russell Shepard. Of those, we believe four will be retained, four will not.

None of them will command huge deals and none of them are marquee players. They’re role players, but pivotal ones at that. There won’t be any players the Bucs bring back that will make headlines outside of Bucs oriented outlets.

There is one player, however, that is sure to make headlines once he agrees to a deal no matter where it is. Quite simply, because of the position that he plays and the rumor mills going crazy over him during the last two off-seasons.
