Bucs at a Crossroads: Evans Exit, Draft Depth, and Combine Buzz
At the NFL Scouting Combine, Pewter Report suggests Mike Evans could depart Tampa Bay in free agency amid a crowded WR room and his bid to climb top‑10 all‑time lists; the Bucs are weighing how Zac Robinson’s offense would feed Evans or his replacements (Emeka Egbuka, Chris Godwin, etc.) and are prioritizing TE/WR depth in the draft (potential Otton exit, Ko Kieft re-signed). There’s talk of potential trades (Maxx Crosby) with Winfield Jr. possibly used as an asset, plus ongoing draft buzz about prospects like Sonny Styles and Ty Simpson’s interview; the leaked NFLPA report card paints TB poorly overall despite Licht’s A‑, signaling the franchise’s ongoing rebuild questions.
