Licht's Cautious Bucs: Bargain Hunting or Step Back?

NFL Store is making news on March 17th.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers' General Manager Jason Lycht has taken a cautious approach in free

agency this off-season.

One analyst from Bleacher Report summed it up with a single word, bargain.

The team lost wide receiver Mike Evans and cornered back Jamel Dean, both the big blows

to the roster.

Their only standout addition so far is Linebacker Alex Anzalone, who could help shore up the

defense.

Without more impact players, the Bucks will rely heavily on a strong draft to improve.

Fans and experts see this as a step back after last year's aggressive spending.

Lycht went all in then, but overpaid for edge-rusher highs and reddick, leaving a mark that's

making him more careful now.

That past experience has slowed things down, but it's not over yet.

The team holds on to a narrow chance at contending.

Moves could still come after the draft, or past June 1st, when veteran players often

hit the market.

Lycht has a track record of landing those types late, which might extend their competitive

years.
