Jason Licht, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' general manager, has been a standout performer this NFL offseason, earning accolades for his savvy free-agent signings just ahead of the upcoming draft. Keeping star wide receiver Chris Godwin, who took less money to remain in Tampa, along with re-signing veteran linebacker Lavonte David, highlights Licht's effective management. Notably, he also retained key offensive linemen Ben Bredeson and Sua Opeta and made waves by signing pass rusher Haason Reddick, contributing to an impressive overall offseason.

Despite the praise, ESPN analyst Ben Solak pointed out a concern regarding the backup quarterback situation. The Bucs' decision to stick with Kyle Trask instead of seeking a more experienced option raises questions about their playoff ambitions, especially if starting quarterback Baker Mayfield were to miss time. As the offseason progresses, the Buccaneers look poised to retain their competitive edge, with all offensive starters returning from last season.
