I just hope we don't have a random Logan hall/JTS pick with our #1.

Some guys I would be happy walking away from the draft with:

JPJ
Verse
Latu
Legette
Cooper
Trotter Jr

There's more but hopefully we get at least one of them.

I'd like to see in no certain order EDGE, CB, iOL, WR, RB in the first 4 rounds with those 5 picks. If we draft a QB I'd like it to be Spencer Rattler.

Non-Bucs related…I don’t think you’re gonna see too many surprises. A lot of people try to drum up crazy scenarios but in the end, more times than not, things go according to plan. Top 4 will be Caleb, Daniels, Maye, and Harrison. Chargers prolly go OL and Giants with Nabers. If there’s gonna be a suprise, it’s gonna be a team trying to trade up to either 5, 7, or 8 as I think LA, Ten, and Atl don’t need qbs but rather more picks.

Bucs related…am hoping one one of the top edge rushers like Verse, Turner, or Laitu still there. If not, I’m always a fan of going OL and strengthening that area. If Chop is there, that’s another guy I’d love to take.

I'd I needed a WR and had a pick with both available I'd take Nabers.

Happy draft day everyone. Just cracked my first adult beverage and ready to read all the last minute rumors. Over under 11pm for our pick? I’m thinking over

That is really no Harbaugh's MO. If the Chargers have any fans, they should definitely be prepared to not take a WR.

Chargers are my #2 and basically the team I'm most excited about tonight. You're sitting at 5 and you're not going to trade down or take Harrison/Nabers? The class is stacked with Oline talent. At least trade down. Going Oline at 5 in this draft is just a trash move, even if the pick pans out.

Ok but what if Harbaugh comes in and trades Herbert to NYG for 6 overall, then drafts JJ McCarthy and Malik Nabers

Here's something about Brock Bowers, he didn't have a great quarterbacks throwing to him and he still managed to accumulate impressive games

Bennett=game manager

Beck= game manager

They just drafted Quentin Johnson in Round 1 last year I believe. And you can get a good WR this year in Rd 2. If I were them id look at trading down if I could to 11 and get some extra picks.

Quentin looked horrible last year and they just lost both starters. WR is a gaping hole for them. A trade down would be fine, but just outright going tackle there is a straight up blunder

I think it will be approximately 10:30 pm when the Bucs make their selection. Most of you guys are probably already asleep. LOL!

But two years in a row using a #1 on a WR? Guess that’s where in questioning it. Nabers is tough to turn down though.

Marvin Harrison and Nabers? If you don't choose either of them, you should be FIRED!

And if you don't then at least trade down a few picks and let someone else

So the Bucs currently have only $250,000 in salary cap space, do they plan to renegotiate several players' contracts before June 1st?

Still the greatest strategic and complex event with so many critical and instantaneous decisions involving rue/regret and/or celebration…

But will the Jets pick an unknown/overrated 1st rounder or have they put that hilarity behind them…?
I think they have…ahem.

Caleb Williams reminds me a lot of Baker Mayfield coming out of college in terms of his strong confidence.
