2. Antonio Brown

Antonio Brown has recently hinted at retiring and it wouldn’t be surprising if we didn’t ever see him on a football field again, at least in a player’s role.

That being said, there were heavy rumors earlier this summer that Brown and the Buccaneers were gaining traction. Talk about a massive risk.

Bruce Arians was consistent in his discussions that the Bucs weren’t interested in bringing in the veteran wide receiver and that was absolutely the right move.

With all the talent and depth the Bucs already possess at wide receiver, they would be taking an unnecessary risk and potentially throwing chemistry out of wack by just taking a chance on an aged Antonio Brown.
