The Tampa Bay Buccaneers were one of a handful of teams to dip into the undrafted free agent pool to find some untapped talent that could help turn around their fortunes. The Buccaneers were abysmal in 2013 but things are looking bright thanks to Lovie Smith and there’s hope that the mining of the undrafted free agent pool can hop bolster a growing roster.

Here’s a look at who the Buccaneers grabbed after the draft:

Solomon Patton, WR, Florida
Brett Smith, QB, Wyoming
Ryne Giddins, DE, USF
Andrew Miller, G, Virginia Tech
Toney Hurd, DB, Texas A&M
Keith Lewis, CB, Virginia-Lynchburg
Mycal Swaim, S, Eastern Michigan
Josh Allen, C, Lousiana-Monroe
Dylan Lynch, K/P, Jacksonville University
Aaron Burks, WR, Boise State
Chaz Sutton, DE, South Carolina
Nate Askew, LB, Texas A&M
Steven Jenkins, LB, Texas A&M
Jeremy Smith, RB, Oklahoma State
Matt Patchan, OL, Boston College
Kenarious Gates, OT, Georgia
Chris Burnette, G, Georgia
Euclid Cummings, DT, Georgia Tech

Not everyone is going to end up being signed, as some are just going to be tryouts and nothing else. But they’re all names to keep an eye on as you never know who will pop.
