The 4 pm deadline has now passed and there is still little information about the final roster compared to yesterday which witnessed 20 players being released. Fortunately that was enough information to predict what the Bucs depth chart should look like when they head to New Orleans for Week One.

Below is my prediction on who will be where on the depth chart.
