A lot of money is tied up in these guys, yet the Bucs secondary has not excelled thus far.

Mark Barron, a former top-10 pick, is adequate as strong safety, though he has never quite developed into the impact player the Bucs expected. And Alterraun Verner has proven worth the four-year, $25.75 million deal he signed this offseason.

Other than that, the Bucs have an empty cupboard. Johnthan Banks is a huge liability despite being the starting corner. The Ravens absolutely need to pick on him.

Dashon Goldson was a high-priced free agent from San Francisco, but he has never been a great cover guy at safety. His struggles have continued this season.

The Ravens have a chance to shred this secondary, especially considering the Bucs minimal pass rush. Joe Flacco could have a very big game.
