19–23

Bucs fell to the lowly Browns. There's really no unit of the Bucs that looks solid right now. It's becoming clear that early optimism of a good roster was misplaced. The decision to extend Baker Mayfield before this season looks like an egregious mistake by Jason Licht.

Top need

True WR1. Godwin’s in a late-career window, Evans is gone, Egbuka looks like a great #2 — unless Hurst pops, elite receiver is the board.

Desk at 1

Jeremiah Smith· WR, Ohio State

Desk WR1 at 1. Alpha outside presence the room is missing with Evans gone — Godwin’s window is late-career, Egbuka looks like a great #2 unless Hurst forces a rethink.
