New rookie wideout Jalen McMillan may spell the end of Buccaneers star receiver, Chris Godwin so will a trade happen? According to several reports, many sources predict that Tampa Bay will eventually move on from Godwin after this upcoming season. McMillan is a slot receiver just like Godwin so there’s a chance he could surpass him considering the Buccaneers have to adjust the veteran’s contract next offseason. However, if they see McMillan outperform Godwin then the chances of Tampa Bay letting Godwin walk in free agency next year are high.

When the Miami Heat lost Caleb Martin in free agency to the Philadelphia 76ers, it sort of forced the front office's hands in the second wave of free agency. Sure, the team could have swung a massive deal for a high-profile player, sign-and-trading for one of the players they've been connected to like Tyus Jones but instead, they stuck to their guns and gave their other 3-and-D swing forward, Haywood Highsmith, a two-year, $11 million contract to stick around as a top-8 wing with 3-and-D upside to go alongside free agency addition Alex Burks plus returning bigs Thomas Bryant and Kevin Love.
