Trade winds must blow in Bucs’ direction to save Tom Brady’s likely final season

TAMPA, Fla. ― Tom Brady’s likely final season with the Bucs and perhaps his last in the NFL is on the verge of turning into an embarrassing exit for arguably the greatest football player of all time.

Sending the player who brought so much relevance and success to the franchise out a winner will mean exhausting resources to improve the club before Tuesday’s trade deadline.

The Bucs (3-5) still are not eliminated from an underwhelming NFC South race, but changes need to be made in scheme and personnel. A sub-.500 record may win the division the way it did in 2014, when the Panthers went 7-8-1 to take the title.
