The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have added about $3 million in cap space; who are some potential free agent options still left on the market?

Today the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and wide receiver Mike Evans agreed to a contract restructure which translated part of Evans’ deal into a signing bonus, creating $3.2 million in cap space. Now that the team is out from against the cap wall, they may be targeting another free agent or two.

While the spending frenzy of free agency is over, there are still some quality players still left on the market. The Buccaneers still lack some depth at a few positions such as running back, defensive tackle, and pass rusher. After landing Ndamukong Suh about a month ago, could Tampa Bay still have a move left up their sleeve?

Players still on the market may be willing to take a bargain deal in order to join a team before training camp, and with that being said, the Buccaneers may be able to secure more than one with their current cap space in a 2019 where they need to make the most of their current roster.

New head coach has not been afraid to bring in veterans to challenge the young guys, and he could potentially do it again. Here are four quality players still on the open market for the Buccaneers to potentially pursue with their newfound cap space.
