Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookies who’ll shine in Training Camp
1. S Antoine Winfield Jr.
If you don’t understand how big of a deal it was when the Buccaneers drafted Antoine Winfield Jr. in the second-round, you’re going to catch on pretty quickly.
While there are some talented returners in the defensive backfield, particularly at safety, it won’t be long before Winfield Jr. is basically outperforming all of them.
It’s my expectation that he’ll step in right away to a starter role and that he’ll be one of the top performers of camp. Anything less would be an absolute shock.
Winfield Jr. has the perfect blend of physicality and athleticism to play the position at the next level and I believe that will be on display relatively early on in the camp process.
