Ronald Jones II Fumbles Twice In Practice
Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie running back Ronald Jones II botched two handoffs in practice on Thursday.

ADP Sleepers or Busts? How to Treat Jacksonville's Receiving Options
In my mind, there are two ways you can look at the Jaguars wide receiver battle this preseason.

Chark -- and think wow, someone is going to emerge from that mess and be […]

Tight End Standard Rankings - Tiers and Analysis
Tight end is always a difficult position to draft. The elite players go early but you have to be willing to sacrifice other positions to lock them down.

Take yourself back to the 2015 draft season. We had just come off the year of the receiver, highlighted by breakout rookie seasons from Odell Beckham Jr. and Mike Evans, and career years from Emmanuel Sanders and Golden Tate.

Quarterback Stat Sleepers - Adjusted Completion Percentage
There are plenty of factors that go into a fantasy quarterback's success in any given season. While some passers could be said to be more "accurate" than others, what does this really mean?

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are working out free-agent place kicker Nick Rose on Friday as potential competition for Chandler Catanzaro, who missed an extra-point attempt and a long field goal in the preseason game on Thursday.

Ronald Jones II Struggles in First Preseason Game
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II rushed eight times on Thursday and only managed to gain nine yards. The bright side for the first year back was that one of those rushes put up six for Tampa Bay. Regardless, the line could have looked better. Despite how stiff his competition is, Jones has […]
Chandler Catanzaro Having Great Camp
Tampa Bay Buccaneers place kicker Chandler Catanzaro is having a great training camp and has rarely missed his field goal attempts. The Bucs failed with Roberto Aguayo and Nick Folk in recent years, and Catanzaro also has a stronger leg. The 27-year-old booter made 25 of his 30 attempts (83.3 percent) with the Jets last […]
Ronald Jones II Struggling In Pass Protection
Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie running back Ronald Jones II has had his good and bad days in training camp, but he's struggling mostly with pass protection.

Why You Should Wait on Tight End This Year
The tight end position is always one of the most frustrating ones to fill.

Chris Godwin Expected To Start Opposite Mike Evans
Tampa Bay Buccaneers second-year wide receiver Chris Godwin has reportedly won a starting job as the No. 2 receiver opposite Mike Evans. Godwin showed out in the limited playing time he earned last season. The rookie receiver totaled 34 catches, 525 yards, and one touchdown while only starting two games in 2017. Godwin's numbers should […]
DeSean Jackson to Work Out of Slot in 2018
It is being reported that Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson has been working primarily out of the slot during training camp.
