1993 Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The 1993 Tampa Bay Buccaneers season began with the team trying to improve on an 5-11 season.

1993 was mostly seen as a rebuilding year for coach Sam Wyche who moved on without Vinny Testaverde and went with young quarterback Craig Erickson, another University of Miami alumnus who won a national championship as their quarterback.

The 1993 Buccaneers have the distinction of being the only team in NFL history to have played eleven games against teams that would go on to make the playoffs; the Buccaneers were 3-8 in these games.

NFL Draft
Prior to the season they drafted John Lynch who would become one of the most popular players of all time in Tampa.

Daron Alcorn was the last player selected in the draft, commonly referred to as "Mr. Irrelevant".
