We’re going through the Tampa Bay Buccaneers roster position by position to see if they improved compared to last year. Today: interior offensive line.
2015 roster: Logan Mankins, Ali Marpet, Evan Smith, Joe Hawley, Kevin Pamphile, Josh Allen, Garrett Gilkey, Ben Gottschalk
2016 roster: J.R. Sweezy, Ali Marpet, Evan Smith, Joe Hawley, Kevin Pamphile, Josh Allen, Ben Gottschalk, Dominique Robertson, Caleb Benenoch.
The Bucs made just one move along the interior offensive line this offseason: they signed J.R. Sweezy to replace Logan Mankins, who retired instead of spending another year in Tampa’s heat.
