ESPN Grades Bucs' Free Agent Class

With free agency all but done with, many teams’ rosters are beginning to take shape. The Buccaneers were fairly active in free agency, acquiring big-play wide receiver DeSean Jackson, along with potential starters Chris Baker (defensive line), J.J. Wilcox (safety) and Garrison Sanborn.

How did the Bucs’ haul measure up against the rest of the league? Pretty well, according to ESPN. They handed the Bucs a B+ for their free agency class, becoming one of six teams to earn a B+ or higher.

“The Bucs got the guy they wanted in Jackson, bolstered their interior defensive line with Chris Baker and also re-signed William Gholston, who will continue to help the Bucs against the run,” ESPN’s Jenna Laine wrote.
