The Buccs need a quarterback, and both Jameis Winston and Marcus Mariota are available. So Tampa Bay is almost certainly going to stand pat and take one of them at the top of the board, right? Well, maybe not.

Newsday New York first broke the story that the Buccaneers “will listen seriously to trade offers for the No. 1 pick.”
