Buccaneers legend has a unique choice for the Bucs most impactful rookie
Everyone has talked about the Bucs' top draft, Emeka Egbuka, and how he is going to be the future of the passing attack when Mike Evans retires. While everyone is focusing on Egbuka, or cornerbacks Jacob Parrish and Benjamin Morrison, a Bucs legend is highlighting another. Ronde Barber, who knows a thing or two about high-level defensive play as a Pro Football Hall of Fame cornerback, discussed on his show the most impactful Bucs rookie in 2025. His answer was surprising. Barber explained, "Our No. 1 impact rookie, you might not believe this — it is David Walker, I didn't know anything about him until we picked him, and then you go and look at what he did... when you put the film on, you're like, 'Holy cow, this dude has the mentality.' It's kinda like this underdog mentality that makes people respect him." David Walked is everything and more than what Barber explained on his show. He never stuffed the box score, but what he did time and again was create pressure on the offenses. The Bucs have had a great time of having players transition from edge rushers in college to interior defenders. Walker is the latest to get that move inside, and he could have a chance to create some chaos within Todd Bowles' system.

Dame Joan wore white trousers and a white top, with her outfit completed with a white jacket featuring flamingos and palm trees, while Brandon, who is married to Glynis Barber, 69, who played his onscreen wife Harriet Makepeace in Dempsey And Makepeace, wore a blue shirt and brown trousers. Barber was also in attendance at the event, where she wore white pinstriped trousers and a black top, actress Cherie Lunghi, who competed in the 2008 series of Strictly Come Dancing, was at the launch too, where she wore a green dress. Former Rolling Stones bass player Bill Wyman also joined Brandon at the event wearing an England cricket jacket, striped shirt and grey trousers. At the Waterstones launch, Brandon signed copies of his book and met with fans, who queued across the store to see him. Running from January 1985 to November 1986, Dempsey And Makepeace saw Harriet, an elegant British noblewoman, and James, a working-class New York detective, pair up to fight crime as part of an elite armed unit of the Metropolitan Police in London. Brandon and South African-born star Barber married in 1989, three years after the show's conclusion, despite their characters never getting together, although Harriet implies that she is in love with James in the show's final episode, which was directed by Brandon himself.
