Top Ten Best Tampa Bay Buccaneers Players Going Into the 2021 NFL Season
The reigning Super Bowl champions field a roster stocked with talent. They can easily repeat as champions, especially since they have almost the same starting lineup as last season. Here, we are looking at the top ten best Tampa Bay Buccaneers players going into the 2021 NFL season.
Lavonte David is an American football linebacker for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the National Football League. It's hard to say who Tampa Bay's best player is. David in the end is the one who comes to mind. He's been great since his rookie season, but overshadowed for so long. Winning the Super Bowl got him some fanfare, and he signed a new deal with the Buccaneers. Him and Devin White form a nice duo.
Michael Lynn Evans is an American football wide receiver for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the National Football League.
Evans was drafted 7th overall to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2014. Evans has continued his streak of 1,000 yard seasons, never dipping under that number at all during his career. He also caught 13 touchdowns.
Thomas Edward Patrick Brady, Jr., is a retired American football quarterback for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the National Football League. Brady is known for being the only quarterback in history to win 7 Super Bowls, and was often considered one of the best quarterbacks of all time. Brady was also frequently considered to be the biggest steal in NFL history as a late 6th round pick.
He had previously played for the New England Patriots from 2000 to 2019. Brady proved everyone wrong again last season and helped guide his team to his seventh Super Bowl victory. How does the man keep doing it? And it doesn't look like he's stopping soon either.
Speaking of Devin White, he has begun to become a star. He was named to his first all-pro team last season, and was a key contributor in making Tampa Bay's defense so great. He's only going into his third season, and is a top inside linebacker in the NFL.
Despite it being his rookie season, Wirfs locked down the right tackle spot and kept Tom Brady safe.
While not having the sack numbers of two seasons ago in 2020, Barrett was a disruptive force and made Tampa Bay's pass rush formidable alongside Jason Pierre-Paul. Now he has his long term deal and can contend for more Super Bowls.
Jensen was an underrated contributor to the Super Bowl winning season. He is one of the best centers in the game.
Another rookie last season, Winfield roamed the field as a free safety and showed his play making potential for the future. Look out for him, if his father is any indicator.
Godwin's season was weird in 2020. Marred with injury and drops, he still played decently well a lot of the time. He is currently playing under the franchise tag, and you got to wonder if he will strike a long term deal with the Buccaneers. Well time will tell.
Vea was missed during a large chunk of the season, as he is one of the league's best nose tackles and run stoppers. The Buccaneers will be glad to have him back and healthy this season.
Robert Paxton Gronkowski, nicknamed "Gronk," is an American football tight end for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the National Football League.
After retiring at the end of the 2018 NFL Season, Gronkowski came out of retirement to play with former Patriots teammate Tom Brady for the 2020 NFL season.
Jason Andrew Pierre-Paul, nicknamed JPP, is an American football defensive end for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the National Football League.
Ndamukong Suh is an American football defensive tackle for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the National Football League.
