20. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
JuJu Smith-Schuster . 20. player. 48. Their start to the year has been inconsistent to say the least but the Tampa Bay Buccaneers still have an intriguing young team that should only get better as the season goes along. A critical division win is already in their pocket as well. Improvement won’t quite be enough to get them into the playoffs, but it should be a significant step in the right direction. <p>Things appeared fine in the first game, but in the second it was all too obvious to behold. The Buccaneers have a decided lack of depth at the wide receiver position. Mike Evan is their best target. Vincent Jackson remains a threat but is pushing further into his 30s. Beyond them? Not much. Tampa has to make sure Jameis Winston continues to have weapons.</p> <p>As goes in the draft circles, some players are hot one second and cold the next. JuJu Smith-Schuster was a popular receiver early in the year but has lost popularity of late. Some aren’t sold on his speed. The truth is though the USC standout has a nice blend of size (6-foot-2) and agility. He makes plays after the catch. In the right system and across from a beast like Evans he can be deadly.</p>. WR.
