The Gerald McCoy news of last week immediately led to one polarizing debate for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers fanbase; is McCoy deserving of making it into the team Ring of Honor?

That debate is heavily skewed in favor of yes, however, there are plenty of naysayers that will argue against this just to take the contrarian angle.

Still, while McCoy is an obvious lock for such an honor to most, this topic does bring up an important issue that still needs to be addressed by the franchise.

James Wilder deserves a spot in the Ring of Honor.

Is there anyone out there that truly disagrees with this take?

Wilder's teams were bad, but just like with McCoy, the award isn't about the team but about the individual, and it is fair to say that Wilder left everything on the field as an individual.

The former workhorse for the Bucs still owns the title as franchise rushing leader with 5,957 rushing yards, and based on the recent backs to come to the team and rushing performances, that doesn't look like it will change anytime soon.

In addition to rushing yards, Wilder is first in rushing attempts with 1,575, second in rushing touchdowns (37), third in receptions (430), and ninth in receiving yards (3,492).

This guy did it all on the field for the Buccaneers and left every bit of himself in games where he had next to no help from anyone else.

Nine years with the team for 9,449 yards and 46 total touchdowns with a very rare 2,000+ total yard season are exactly what the resume needs to look like to make it in the Ring of Honor.

None of this is to take away from Gerald McCoy, who also greatly deserves the honor, but now the Bucs should start feeling the pressure to get two deserving names up into the rafters of Raymond James Stadium.
