The 5 most important players for the Buccaneers in 2020
By Rob Leeds
The Buccaneer defense has been constructed to emerge as one of the top units in the NFL in 2020. Assuming the secondary takes the necessary steps, Tampa Bay could very well have a defense in the top-12 by the end of the season.
While all of the defensive starters did return from last season, it is hard to make an argument that any of them will make as big a splash in 2020 as Lavonte David.
David has been passed over for numerous individual awards throughout his career because he has played for Tampa Bay. With the spotlight firmly on the Bucs, all of that is scheduled to change.
As the Buccaneers have become a nationally-prominent franchise for the first time in nearly two decades, there are a lot of people who are going to learn that they have been criminally neglecting Lavonte David.
After getting snubbed as an All-Pro in 2019, David will be going on a revenge tour with the rest of the defense in 2020, and he will finally earn the recognition that he deserves.
