Buccaneers off-season workout schedule announced
By James Yarcho
Many fans are excited to see their new-look Tampa Bay Buccaneers start football activities. Here is the upcoming off-season workout schedule
We’ve made it. The draft is over and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers appear to be in great shape heading into the 2017 season having surrounded Jameis Winston with immense talent on offense while supplementing shortcomings on the defense.
Fans are excited to start seeing and hearing about the team progressing this off-season as the excitement and expectations haven’t reached this level in over a decade. The Bucs are ready to get things underway with the entire squad after rookie mini-camp begins Friday.

Here is the upcoming Bucs schedule;
Rookie Mini Camp: May 5-7
OTA Off-season Workouts: May 23-25, May 30-31, June 1, June 5-8
Mandatory Mini Camp: June 13-15
The first thing to keep an eye on is obviously rookie mini-camp. There are always those diamonds in the rough Bucs’ GM Jason Licht manages to find. There is a strong likelihood – given his history – that a rookie mini camp invite will make the final roster. Our own Zach Sauers believes Antony Auclair may just be that guy that emerges (as you can hear in the latest Walking The Plank podcast below or check out his column on the Bucs’ tight ends here)
Another storyline many people will be following – especially yours truly – is how Doug Martin looks. I’ve been very vocal in my displeasure about Martin being the guy for 2017 so following his progress through the off-season will certainly be high on the priority list for myself as well as others still upset at running back not being a higher draft priority.
You can hear more about the draft picks as well as the undrafted free agents and tryout invites as we dove in to all of the above with Sauers and Trevor Sikkema of Pewter Report in Walking The Plank.
