Buccaneers roster breakdown: did the Buccaneers improve at tight end?

We're going position by position to see whether the Tampa Bay Buccaneers improved their roster compared to last year. Today: tight ends.

2016 roster: Austin Seferian-Jenkins, Luke Stocker, Cameron Brate, Tevin Westbrook, Brandon Myers, Alan Cross, Kivon Cartwright, Danny Vitale (fullback)

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have basically the same players at tight end, plus a few extra undrafted free agent with some potential -- and new fullback. Sixth-round pick Danny Vitale replaces the injured Jorvorskie Lane, and is probably a better fit in Dirk Koetter's offense. He was a hybrid tight end/fullback/H-back in college, which is basically the role he'll get this year.
