speaking on her podcast<\/a> this week, any offense is going to take a hit when a Hall of Fame receiver bolts the team. But Kimes liked how deep the Bucs\u2019 wide receiver room was to begin with.<\/p>\nSo, combining that with a strong offensive line and a franchise quarterback, Kimes doesn\u2019t think Bucs AC\/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht has to sweat over the offense when the draft arrives in less than a month.<\/p>\n
\u201cI still feel pretty damn good about this [offensive] roster,\u201d Kimes said. \u201cI gotta say, I was looking at \u2014 obviously, things fell apart last year, and there was injuries throughout \u2014 but you know, even with Mike Evans gone, the receiving group still is in decent shape.<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2026 And the offensive line is great. They signed Kenneth Gainwell, so I think offensively, I still feel pretty good [about the Bucs\u2019 offense].\u201d<\/p>\n
Kimes did mention perhaps the Bucs could add an offensive player, but it is not a pressing need. She mentioned how the Bucs brought back Cade Otton, but like many, including Joe, Kimes wondered how dangerous the offense could be with a dynamic tight end who is a weapon to go deep and score touchdowns.<\/p>\n
However, this chipper, feel-good moment from Kimes about the Bucs quickly turned sour when she mentioned the defensive front-seven.<\/p>\n
Joe fully understands. He\u2019s eaten enough Nexium over the years because of this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Mina Kimes Bullish On Bucs Offense March 26th, 2026 Bucs offense in good shape.
