Reviewing the Buccaneers' 2005 NFL Draft

When I decided to look at drafts, I did expect to run into other articles that focused on our previous drafts. What I didn’t know was that our own Sander Philipse did a run of articles in 2011 about some of the drafts. Here is his article from 2005.

After the 2004 season, where the Tampa Bay Buccaneers went 5-11, the Bucs received the 5th overall pick in the 2005 NFL Draft. In 2004, the offense had three quarterbacks start during the season, recently signed RB Charlie Gardner get so injured he had to retire, and big signing LT Todd Stuessie only start five games and lost his job to LT Derrick Deese.
