The Tampa Bay Buccaneers got a good look at the undrafted free agents and tryout players that attended the first day of its rookie minicamp on Friday, and they came away impressed enough to sign quite a few of them.

Team reporter Briana Dix tweeted on Friday that the team signed 18 undrafted rookies after Day 1 of rookie minicamp. The team could bring on more players as minicamp continues on Saturday and Sunday.

The Bucs signed quite a few WRs to shore up depth at that position, bringing on players like Maryland’s Rakim Jarrett and Kansas State’s Kade Warner, among others. A notable name missing is RB Sean Tucker out of Syracuse, but despite not being listed, Bucs reporter Greg Auman tweeted on Friday that he’s still expected to join the team.
