The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have some leftover money after signing their last rookie in Devin White; how should they use their remaining cap space?

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have officially signed all of their draft picks right in time for the rookies to report for training camp tomorrow. Greg Auman of The Athletic has reported that the Buccaneers still have about $3 million left in cap space to spend for the 2019 season.

Given that the Buccaneers will not be in a spending bind after the 2019 season, they should not be concerned with spending the rest of the money they have left in cap space in an attempt to compete in Bruce Arians’ first year as head coach. The question remains: how should the Buccaneers choose to spend that remaining figure?

The Buccaneers have a shortage of depth at multiple positions, so they must choose wisely when it comes to the player or players (if they can get two on minimum deals) that they will bring into Tampa Bay. The three positions of most lacking for the Buccaneers at this point remain running back, offensive line, and defensive line.

General manager Jason Licht has never been shy about spending money and making deals to improve his roster. With that being said, here are four options as to how the Buccaneers can spend their remaining money in an attempt to improve their roster for the 2019 season.
