Who should be the Bucs’ next Hall of Famer?
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are adding yet another Hall of Famer to their growing list, as legendary defensive back Ronde Barber will be inducted later this fall as a member of the 2023 class.
Barber joins former teammates Derrick Brooks, Warren Sapp, and John Lynch in Canton, as well as fellow Bucs legends Lee Roy Selmon and Tony Dungy.
Now that Barber’s candidacy has finally been recognized with a bronze bust and a gold jacket, who should be the next member of the franchise to join him in football heaven?
We asked Bucs fans what they think, and here’s how they responded:

Has to be Simeon
— Ripperdan (@Makingmerkins) February 11, 2023
Mike Evans for sure!
— Chris Ellington (@Chrispy0515) February 11, 2023
Simeon, Alstott, Nickerson, Quarles in that order
— Predabuc (@Predabuc813) February 11, 2023
Tom Brady.
— Christopher Kirk (@captkirk42) February 11, 2023
Simeon, Gronk, Brady, McCoy, Arians then in 20 years Evans and David

Alstott

If Suh gets one this year is he in the HOF? Or was he in before?

Simeon Rice

Rice
— Timo (@GermanBuccaneer) February 11, 2023
The only right answer is Gronk, Brady and Evans in that order. Sadly, Rice nor Alston are ever making it to the HoF.

Alstott or Simeon
— Richie (@rsw4219) February 11, 2023
I know it will never happen and his numbers are nowhere near worthy, but when I think of a Full Back the first, second, and third person I think of is Mike Alstott.

Gronk then Tom Brady

Sim has the numbers. Shame he doesn't get the love he deserves outside of the organization and it's fans
— Ryne Faulkner (@RockinRyne) February 11, 2023
Don't think it's possible for Simeon Rice to get in until he's eligible for senior committee induction. Dwight Freeney and Jared Allen didn't even get in this year, lol. It'll be Rob Gronkowski, who isn't really a Buccaneer. Tom Brady probably get in before Gerald McCoy.

Mike Alstott!
Put the A-Train in !!! NOW— Tobias Starke (@tst1860) February 11, 2023
If Dwight Freeney is a HoFer, so is Simeon Rice.
— N✌te (@NByers89) February 11, 2023
I love Rice, but he’s not getting in. Look how long it took to get Ronde in. I honestly don’t know who will be next. People saying Nickerson have also lost their minds.
