Tampa Bay Buccaneers Preseason Defensive Depth Chart

Tom EdringtonJul 23, 2009

This article is the third in a series. Today, we present our defensive depth chart. There are only eight more days until the players report, and nine until the first practices.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers' defensive roster has a mixture of veterans and young players. The biggest concern is that with the change in defensive formats,ย most of these players were drafted or acquired to play the Tampa Two defense. The new defense may end up as a hybrid 4-3.
