The Buccaneers needed Ross Cockrell to stay put.
After winning the Super Bowl, the main goal for the Buccaneers was keeping their starters on the roster. This worked out well, as Tampa was able to bring back all 22 starters from last season, but adding key depth like Ross Cockrell also helps.
Cockrell flew under the radar as a signing this week, but the upside that he brings to the Buccaneers as a depth piece is impossible to underscore.
