Offensive Line
The Buccaneers decided to pass on selecting a guard this past April despite the hole at right guard left by Caleb Benenoch moving to tackle. Heading into 2020, the Buccaneers could be looking to not only fill the void at right guard, but also center and right tackle.

Alex Cappa, the presumed starter at right guard, has not been developing to this point in the summer as the Buccaneers would have liked, leading to a move along the offensive line last month, and potentially another move on the way. The Buccaneers should begin to scour not only the guard class, but others along the offensive line as well.
Right tackle Demar Dotson is on the last year of his contract, and is unlikely to come back to Tampa Bay and could potentially retire. Given the current lack of depth along their offensive front, it is a safe assumption that his replacement is currently not on the roster.
The Buccaneers may also want to look into the center class as well, as Ryan Jensen has yet to live up to his massive contract that he signed last offseason. His guaranteed money dries up at the end of this offseason, so if he does not improve in 2019, he will more than likely be looking for a new place to play football as well.
