With a focus on defense in the 2019 draft, these 3 UDFA’s could have a notable impact on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers offense this season.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers put an emphasis on defense in the 2019 NFL Draft as Bruce Arians clearly believes he can work with the talent available on the offensive side of the ball.

The team took LSU linebacker Devin White in the first round and followed that up with three defensive backs on day 2. Day 3 started off in the same direction as they selected edge rusher Anthony Nelson before then taking a kicker in the fifth round.

Finally, in the sixth round the Buccaneers decided to add somebody to the offense when they selected Bowling Green wide receiver Scott Miller before rounding out their class with another defensive lineman.

After so much attention going towards the defense in the draft, Tampa Bay did get a nice UDFA haul that provides them with some intriguing names that can compete on offense.

Here are three names I feel can make work their way into the mix in 2019.
