5 Buccaneers who will make a name for themselves in 2020
By Rob Leeds
Ronald Jones is the final player on this list and likely has the biggest question marks surrounding his future as a Buccaneer.
After a disappointing rookie season, Jones stepped up into the starting role for part of his sophomore season and performed well. Rojo found success in a timeshare with Peyton Barber and put up over 1,000 total yards with six touchdowns.
Despite this good performance from Jones, many fans have started to call for the Bucs to find a new running back in the upcoming draft. Try to find a mock draft that doesn’t have a running back in the second round. If the Bucs were to use a second-round pick on this position, it would be a complete mistake.
Tampa Bay already has a player that is capable of putting up 1,000 yards rushing in a single season and using a high draft pick on a player that would only bring a marginal improvement is heavily flawed.
If Tampa Bay made the smart decision and drafted a running back in a later round that would compliment Jones rather than supplant him, Jones would be in the perfect position to make waves in 2020.

Rojo has the speed and the hands to be a 1,500 total yard player quite easily if his 2019 season was any indication, and any player who puts up stats like that will quickly become one of the more recognizable backs in the league very fast.
