Saints would still seem to be the logical landing spot for Sanders. Cleveland maybe?

If Raiders don't with the Brady connection, that's going to sting.
Brady laughs at how long that clown holds the ball. No way he’s a Raider.

I don't know, but Bowles better have an ace up his sleeve after this move.

Seems the Jihaad fall was real. Not too surprising. To land him in the second, oh boy.

Agree. We can get a Demetrius Knight type in 3rd hopefully. We need to jump on best CB available in 2nd. A sleeper pick for Bucs is Princely Umanmanamananananlein

When your roster is that stacked, you can afford to redshirt and hope for the best.

There’s legitimately 50+ players who could go in the first round. We are picking one player for one spot. I don’t think it’s a great prediction to say that we’re probably gonna be wrong picking one lol

Look at why the roster is stacked though: They don't overthink it. They don't get caught up in the "Oh but random sources say he got into a fight with his grandmother" or "Oh he got into a fight 7 years ago"

They see talent. They get it. Simple as that. A lot of teams talk themselves out of draft picks because of the most petty, irrelevant factors.

With all the Mike Evans drops OBP was doing, I think they were buying the McMillian draft fall chatter and thought they'd be picking Evans successor ... then when that fell through and nobody called to trade for Sanders, they fell back on: "well, this kid will still help some ... I guess". So dumb ...

I'm feeling Dennis Green RN ... can't believe we let Barron go so we could pickup yet another slot receiver

I agree from a talent perspective with what little I know. But don't have any idea how well Barron interviewed or any of that.

I'm glad it's for a player I also think will be a stud.

I think its so enjoyable watching Sanders drop.

Garbage player. Cocky attitude doing things like flexing watches and wealth.

Some crap franchise will roll the dice

Ugh, we’re the 53rd pick, which means we’ll miss out on some excellent cornerbacks and defensive ends unless we trade up.

The Bucs were 6th in team sacks so that's not true. Now if you mean we can't to the QB rushing four, then I agree

McMillan
Egbuka

Bucky

Godwin
Evans


That's hard to cover and can run block too.
How often you expecting us to run 10?
Who knows, in his post draft presser, Licht said we can run 4 receiver sets...

Yeah. So, there are two ways to fix the issue.

Better DBs who can cover.
Better pass rushers who can finish.

Here are some guys I hope fall to the Buccaneers:
Edge Donovan Ezeiruaku
S Andrew Mukuba
S Xavier Watts
LB Demetrius Knight Jr.
S Nick Emmanwori
Edge Mike Green
Edge Princely Umanmielen
CB Will Johnson

I doubt several of these guys make it to the Buccaneers pick, but we need defensive help on day two.

If we don't go back to back defensive players on day two then I would be truly shocked. Getting a WR is something Bowles and Licht has hinted at since the combine so it wasn't that much of a shock

For those hoping the Bucs would grab Will Johnson, Landon Jackson, Benjamin Morrison or JT Tiumoloau.....

All four are still on the board as of right now.

If I were Licht, I'd have a trade up plan in my back pocket for tonight.

I’m sure the Jags would’ve just preferred to lose more games, than give up so many draft picks to move up 3 spots.

If you’re gonna suck, just suck entirely. Don’t half suck. (OOCA)
