Bleacher Report’s Kristopher Knox points to Eric Rivers as the Bucs’ top undrafted free agent target. Rivers offers a vertical punch from the slot and can contribute on special teams, making him a good fit for a WR5/WR6 role. With Chris Godwin Jr. locked in as the starting slot receiver, Rivers would be competing for depth against players like Kameron Johnson and Garrett Greene. His college production—1,166 yards and 12 touchdowns at FIU, plus efficient play at Georgia Tech—shows big‑play ability and slot versatility. The Bucs’ roster construction favors utility players, and Rivers’ special‑team upside and vertical threat help keep him in the mix heading into training camp. sportnewz.click
