YEAR ONE OFFSEASON.
AWARDS AND PRO BOWLERS The following players were selected for the Pro Bowl: Jameis Winston, Mike Evans, OJ Howard, Marpet (the LG) and Suh.
Mike Evans won NFC receiver of the year.
Contract Extensions. Only 4 players were offered extensions Jameis, Barber, Perriman and Dotson (the RT). Everyone agreed to new deals, except for Dotson who decided to retire.
Free Agents. I decided to change my defensive set-up from a 3-4 scheme to a 4-3 scheme.
We signed the following free-agents:
- DE - Yannick Ngakoue.
- RE. J. Simon.
- QB. Blake Bortles.
- WR. E. Sanders.
- CB. Aqib Talib.
- RT. LaŽel Collins.
- MLB. Shaun Lee.
THE DRAFT. We went into the draft with 6 picks (we lacked a 7th) and picking on the 23rd spot. Our biggest need was pass rush, Safety and Cornerback. I traded out of the 1st pick and got a 2, 3 and 4 from the Patriots.
The draft went as follows:
- Round 2 - Matthew Bentley - RE - Auburn - 21 y - 70 ovr - normal
- Round 2 - Derrick Schillinger - LE - Duke - 23 y - 71 ovr - normal
- Round 3 - Lamar Youngblood - FS - Toledo - 21 y - 69 ovr - normal
- Round 3 - Nelson Santucci - RG - Temple - 23 y - 68 ovr - normal
- Round 4 - Robert Dean - HB - Texas - 22 y - 63 ovr - normal
- Round 4 - Markus Larson - SS - Akron - 21 y - 68 ovr - HIDDEN
- Round 5 - Deontay Hagler - WR - Tulane - 22 y - 61 ovr - normal
- Round 6 - Trevor Lawson - K - Army - 24 y - 70 ovr - HIDDEN
Overall, I would say it was a very nice draft. We reached on the RunningBack from Texas and the WR from Tulane. I had to cut the WR cause he was never gonna play, but Robert Dean will be RB3 and I think he wills ee the field plenty on this first season.
I am very excited to continue this Journey leading the Bucs, I will probably do a Mid-Season update. And end of season update. And a new offseason. I feel that might be the best rhythm.
Im very eager to hear what you guys think about this dynasty.
