Although the Buccaneers did have a disappointing 5-11 season in 2017, some positives did emerge. When Tampa Bay selected Justin Evans out of Texas A&M with the 50th pick in the draft, many fans thought it was a reach and were worried about how he would translate to the NFL. I would say that after his first season, the Buccaneers feel like they have a pretty good free safety for the foreseeable future.
It took Evans until week five to get the full time starting job as he was still learning the defense, but once he got it, he never looked back.
