I'm a firm believer in surrounding your quarterback with as much weapons as possible, and unfortunately last season, Jameis just didn't have enough around him. Now granted Vincent Jackson and Louis Murphy were out with injuries which hurt the offense dramatically, but the team should have capable depth to step in to ease the loss of those two. Now Adam Humphries and Dontaye Dye played their hearts out and did what they could but their play was average to say the least. Which is why I think the Bucs should take a look at Jermaine Kearse in Free Agency if he becomes available, Kearse would bring speed and a guy that is consistent and reliable. Kearse would bring a veteran presence even though he just turned 26, and has a winning mindset like what Jameis is trying to establish here in Tampa.
I think a receiving corps of Mike Evans, Vincent Jackson, Jermaine Kearse, Louis Murphy, and Kenny Bell gives you five really good wide outs and provides good flexibility for the offense. Kearse is already a pretty good slot guy, but has shown he can be a quality number 2 wide out and would be a good complementary receiver to Mike Evans. If the Bucs can sign Kearse to a good value contract, I am all for it and would provide another weapon for Jameis to attack defenses with. Here is some of his highlights below, he can return kicks as well.
