Make a move… any move… Well this is easy.

If I wake up as the General Manager of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the move I make is to acquire a defensive end. This idea is something that not only myself, but many Buc fans can agree on. The Bucs pass rush cannot even sniff at the quarterback, and have relied solely on defensive tackle Gerald McCoy.

After signing Chris Baker in free agency, and expecting progress from Noah Spence… the Bucs still do not have a pass rush worthy of an NFL field.

Not only would I call all 32 teams in the league to see what heads are on the chopping block, but I would be searching through every veteran defensive end on the free agent market.

What about Aaron Lynch of the San Francisco 49ers (JoeBucsFan idea)? Dwight Freeney… Mario Williams… Jared Odrick…?

Look at those veteran names!

This is what happen when you abuse a certain position group. Especially one of this importance.

Jason Licht, if you are somehow reading this… please for the love of god find a way to help this pass rush. There is not going to be any shot at playoffs without it.
