Analyst Dan Graziano expects Tampa Bay Buccaneers to lead NFC South

Ahead of the upcoming NFL season, analyst Dan Graziano projects the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to return to the top of the NFC South. Although the team finished in a three-way tie with an 8-9 record last year, the analysis suggests that improved health and roster depth will bolster their performance. The team features a retooled defensive front, including rookie Rueben Bain Jr. and second-year player David Walker, alongside veteran additions like Alex Anzalone. Quarterback Baker Mayfield returns to lead an offense that has integrated new targets following the departure of Mike Evans. While the division remains competitive, the assessment highlights that the organization has finished first or tied for first in the division for five consecutive years. Health on the offensive line and in the backfield with Bucky Irving and Kenny Gainwell is expected to be a primary factor in the team's outlook.
