    Based on interviews with coach Raheem Morris and others during the first two weeks of workouts, if the Bucs played a game today, their four active receivers would likely be Antonio Bryant, Michael Clayton, rookie Sammie Stroughter and CFL refugee Kelly Campbell. The player who has everybody buzzing at One Buc is Stroughter, the seventh-round pick from Oregon State. "The guy has great feet. He's caught every ball that's touched his hands," Clayton said. "He's a natural hand-catcher. He snatches it. He's a smart guy who's caught onto the offense really well. "I told him the steps I took to get to know the offense on a day-to-day basis. Coach (Jon) Gruden's offense was way more extensive, so I had to spend a lot more time. I think that's what's allowing him to be more precise in the things he's learned. He's come along very well."
