The Bucs have had 15 rookies on their roster for most of this season and have started 6 of them.

Two of them came off the scrap heap of "undrafted free agents".

Whoever planned their draft last year and kept an eye on what happened to players as they were cut from other training camps did a pretty good job.

Bucs' wins this year have not come at the expense of any very good teams, but the team is indeed young and it has shown that it is a lot better than the 3-13 team the Bucs put out there last year.
