Buccaneers Draft Profile - LB Vosean Joseph
This guy is a potential option if the Buccaneers opt to wait until day two to address linebacker As mentioned before, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have a glaring need at linebacker. Should they decide not to go after one of the elite prospects in Devin White or Devin Bush, they will have to search for a steal on day two or three. The linebacking corps outside of the Devins is slim, but that doesn’t mean they can’t find a diamond in the rough like they did with Kwon Alexander in 2014. Staying close to home, Florida Gators linebacker Vosean Joseph shows some potential, but has some work to...

Buccaneers Draft Profile - LB Devin White
The next draft profile is a player that Buccaneers fans have already started to become familiar with - LSU linebacker Devin White Ever since Indianapolis, there has been one name that the Buccaneers have been heavily linked to regardless of where you’re looking. That is LSU standout linebacker Devin White. With the shift to the 3-4 defense and the loss of Kwon Alexander, the Bucs find themselves with a big need at linebacker, even following the first wave of free agency.

Arizona Cardinals Jordan Hicks versus San Francisco 49ers Kwon Alexander contract shows how Cardinals got the cheaper deal on paper
One of the more intriguing things that happens each and every season is when the contracts are actually unveiled. One thing we heard and saw a lot of when the Arizona Cardinals signed Jordan Hicks was that they got a steal compared to what others had to pay out. Now, when the details of the Cardinals deal with Hicks has come out, it seems more likely that while the numbers for Kwon Alexander are certainly higher, the San Francisco 49ers are in a much better spot to move on if Alexander gets injured again or the previous injuries have already sapped him of his abilities. ...

Brian Baldinger gives us a positive Kwon Alexander breakdown
It’s a Baldy breakdown on a 49ers player. Everyone wins. There’s not much I can really go into on this one other than we all know how much we love Brian Baldinger’s “Baldy Breakdowns” on the 49ers. Whether it’s to praise the scheme or call the 49ers the Keystone Cops (insult) Baldinger breaks things down in a manner so succinct, I wish they’d give him a well produced show. Give him a feeder (hell, I’ll do it) and let him go for 30 minutes. Well, it’s the offseason, but we still have a Baldy Breakdown we can look at. This one is for none other than Kwon Alexander....

Can Kwon Alexander be the next great Niners linebacker?
The 49ers made their first splash in free agency after reportedly agreeing to sign former Buccaneers linebacker Kwon Alexander - what does the film tell us about his qualities?

NFL Free Agency: Patience isn’t a bad thing
Can everyone just calm down? The NFL’s legal tampering period for free agency began Monday, and there hasn’t been much reported action from the Buccaneers. Even with the new league year officially set to begin Wednesday, there isn’t much buzz about Tampa Bay doing anything significant. And you know what? That’s just fine.
