Averaging 3.7 yards per game in 2014 lands Tampa Bay Buccaneers' running back (RB), Doug Martin, tied for 32nd in ranking in 2014. Fellow RB Bobby Rainey averaged 4.3 yards per game last season, but he did not qualify for the NFL rankings at ESPN to be ranked. The Bucs did not accept the fifth year option on Martin's contract, an option available to first round draft picks. So why should Tampa be confident that Martin can rebound?
