Deepest Position - Todd Bowles Has Some Explaining to Do and Is WR a Strength For The Bucs?
About this episode
Todd Bowles dropped a surprise answer this week when asked what the deepest position on the Buccaneers roster is — and it wasn't the offensive line, the edge rush, or a wide receiver room that's six or seven deep. Rick Stroud and Steve Versnick dig into why Bowles named inside linebacker, break down the additions of Josiah Trotter, Alex Anzalone and a recovering Christian Roseboom, and debate whether that's really the strength Bowles says it is or just coach-speak aimed at the locker room.
From there, the guys take a hard look at the receiver room in the wake of Mike Evans' departure — is Emeka Egbuka ready to be a true No. 1, what does a banged-up Egbuka and Jalen McMillan mean for Week 1 in Cincinnati, and why rookie Tez Johnson and Georgia State product Ted Hurst could be the X-factors who decide how explosive this passing game really is. Plus: the case for why the Bucs' defense — not the offense — might be the most improved unit on the team heading into the opener.
Rick and Steve also touch on the wild logistics of the 49ers-Rams game in Australia, recap the Rays' rough series loss to the Mets and where the rotation stands heading into the stretch run, and look ahead to a loaded weekend of college football with LSU-Clemson headlining the return of GameDay.
