16. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

<p>Outside of Vincent Jackson and Mike Evans, what do the Tampa Bay Buccaneers really have going at wide receiver? There is a partial reason why they decided to keep so many tight ends on the roster. Evan Spencer and Adam Humphries are hardly legitimate options for the No. 3 position. Then there is the lingering concern that Jackson is plunging deeper into his 30s. How much juice does he have left? This is a problem that can be solve with one turning in of the card in 2017, assuming the team recognizes the same problem.</p> <p>Adding the fast, quick and shifty JuJu Smith-Schuster to that group is undoubtedly a win-win situation. He’s a true vertical threat who can stretch the field whenever he wants but also is capable of taking screens and slants to the house thanks to his run-after-the-catch ability. Even scarier is the fact he’s 6-foot-2, so he’s got the frame to play big in addition to fast.</p> <p>Pair him with Evans and it’s the ideal mix for Jameis Winston to excel. Need a first down or a touchdown? Look for the 6’5′ Evans. Need a quick strike for a big gain? Look for Smith-Schuster.</p>. WR . USC. JuJu Smith-Schuster . 16. player. 48
