Analyst Suggests Buccaneers Trade Linebacker SirVocea Dennis Before 2026 Season

Bleacher Report analyst Moe Moton has recommended the Tampa Bay Buccaneers trade linebacker SirVocea Dennis as part of a broader summer roster shakeup. The Buccaneers recently signed veteran linebackers Alex Anzalone and Christian Rozeboom and drafted Josiah Trotter in the second round, potentially pushing Dennis down the depth chart despite his full-time starter role last season. The trade suggestion reflects the team's linebacker retooling and the opportunity to gain assets before the August 30 roster cutoff deadline.
Bleacher Report analyst Moe Moton has recommended that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers trade linebacker SirVocea Dennis ahead of the 2026 NFL season. The suggestion comes as part of Moton's broader analysis of trades each NFL franchise should consider making before the season begins. The Buccaneers have significantly retooled their linebacker corps by signing veteran starters Alex Anzalone and Christian Rozeboom and selecting Josiah Trotter in the second round of the 2026 draft. With Lavonte David's retirement opening up snaps, Dennis—who was a full-time starter last season—may find himself behind both Anzalone and Rozeboom on the depth chart. According to Pro Football Network data cited in the analysis, Dennis allowed three touchdowns and posted a 122-passer rating in coverage last season. Moton argues that now is an opportune time for the Buccaneers to trade Dennis and gain assets before the August 30 roster cutoff.
