What should the Tampa Bay Buccaneers do this offseason? In regard to Chris Godwin, he’s likely going to demand a large contract as one of the top wide receivers in free agency.
Godwin has been stellar for the Bucs throughout his career and was on pace for his fifth 1,000-yard season before fracturing his ankle in Week 7. This begs the question as to who the Bucs would pivot to if Godwin were to head elsewhere?
Enter Luther Burden III, one of the top wideouts in the ensuing draft. Josh Edwards of CBS Sports believes Burden III would be the perfect first round pick for the Bucs next year.
Chris Godwin is scheduled to hit free agency after the season. Tampa Bay could continue forward with Mike Evans and Jalen McMillan, but the Buccaneers still need another piece. Luther Burden III is an explosive talent with great strength to break tackles in the open field.
The high-energy Burden III would be an electric addition to the Bucs offense. He has 25 touchdowns in three years at Missouri, with the ability to break off for large plays at the right time.
