Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving has been transitioning seamlessly into the team's offensive scheme so far in training camp. According to Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers, Irving's scheme familiarity with Oregon's offense has given him the leg up in getting acclimated to what the Bucs want to do this year. His versatility on the ground and through the air has allowed him to excel in many areas of the offense. Even though Rachaad White seems to be the number-one back, Irving looks like he could get plenty of snaps, especially in pass-catching situations.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White proved himself to be a reliable dual-threat option last season. He rushed for 990 yards while hauling in 70 receptions for 549 receiving yards in what was a successful year for the young back. It sounds like White could see different run packages under new offensive coordinator Liam Coen. It's a new system that will feature a variety of packages such as mid-zone, wide-zone, tight-zone, duo and gap runs. This new scheme could help White find more open lanes to run, which was something that was problematic last season. The Bucs did add rookie back Bucky Irving, but his presence shouldn't hinder the fantasy value of White.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles expressed his confidence in quarterback Baker Mayfield. "Baker has the keys to the bus, and he's driving it, and he's comfortable," said Bowles. "We're comfortable with him. We're both in a great place right now. He has to run the offense. I think he's taken it upon his shoulders. He came back in great shape, and we expect him to do that." The 29-year-old entered the National Football League as the No. 1 overall pick in the 2018 draft by the Browns. However, after some mediocre seasons in Cleveland, he played briefly for the Panthers and Rams before arriving in Tampa last season. But it appears Mayfield has found a home, and he is coming off the best season of his career, finishing the 2023-24 campaign by throwing for 4,044 yards, 28 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions. Without question, Mayfield's rapport with Chris Godwin and Mike Evans continues to improve, meaning he could be in store for an even better year in 2024-25.
