The Bucs have locked up all eight of their practice-squad members for the offseason.

The team signed them to so-called "futures" contracts today, which essentially allows the Bucs to retain them throughout the offseason as part of their 80-man roster.

The players are: safety Vince Anderson, offensive lineman Marc Dile, linebacker J.D. Folsom, receiver Ed Gant, linebacker Simoni Lawrence, center/guard John Malecki, fullback Rendrick Taylor and defensiv end E.J. Wilson.
