The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have several important decisions looming during the 2020 offseason.

The Buccaneers will need to make decisions on what to do with unrestricted free-agents, as well as how to handle the 2020 NFL Draft.

Here’s a look at 10 keys to a successful offseason for the Buccaneers.

10. Give Shaq Barrett long-term extension

The first key is pretty simple: Pay Shaq Barrett.

Barrett proved to be the best edge-rusher in the NFL last season, setting franchise records and earning a Pro Bowl bid, and he deserves to be paid.

Not only is Barrett a talented edge-rusher, he has expressed a love for the Buccaneers which is something you don’t necessarily see a lot in small markets. He’s a special talent and one that the Bucs absolutely cannot afford to let go.

The Buccaneers need to lock in Barrett for a long-term deal to keep him in Tampa Bay and that will be the first step to a successful offseason.
