Good luck to Matt Gay out of Utah.

Seventh round grade. Overdrafted. Damn.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:08 pm
Guys Jason has to go
April 27th, 2019 at 2:08 pm
WTF
April 27th, 2019 at 2:08 pm
Can he hit extra points?
April 27th, 2019 at 2:08 pm
You can’t make this stuff up. Go Bucs.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:08 pm
Solid depth at OL, DL and RB were still on the board, too.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:09 pm
I’m not touching this one with a ten foot pole!
April 27th, 2019 at 2:09 pm
Fireeeee Licht!
April 27th, 2019 at 2:09 pm
Fire Licht now…
April 27th, 2019 at 2:09 pm
What took Gump so long? I was expecting him to make this mistake in round 2!!!
April 27th, 2019 at 2:09 pm
Well they sure aren’t shying away from trying to fix the kicking situation that has hung around forever.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:09 pm
Supposedly, he uses a weird 3 step approach on his kicks. If they try to coach it out of him, it might ruin his confidence. :/ risky move
April 27th, 2019 at 2:09 pm
Fire Jason today!!!!!!! This is the first time I have said it but he is trash!!!
April 27th, 2019 at 2:10 pm
I have tried to stay SUPER positive and not comment but…………A FU****G KICKER? AGAIN!!!!!
April 27th, 2019 at 2:10 pm
……………………………..?
April 27th, 2019 at 2:10 pm
I like the choice. I liked the Agaryoio choice and was proven wrong……Hopefully this time the player will actually do his job.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:10 pm
Yep. That sums it up Joe. Good luck to this kid. I hope he is a difference maker. Hopefully Licht won’t be around long enough to see.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:10 pm
Figures
April 27th, 2019 at 2:10 pm
I’m like you Joe, wow
April 27th, 2019 at 2:11 pm
Is this a joke? Wtf
April 27th, 2019 at 2:12 pm
These overreactions are classic. So much fun to read.
It’s alsmost as if y’all don’t even know that a fifth round choice rarely turns into anything noteworthy…….Gay has the same chance to prove his value as any other 5th rounder ever.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:12 pm
Stop drafting kickers when there are football players available
April 27th, 2019 at 2:12 pm
Bud Licht strikes again….5th rd kicker? Best player available…..PLEASE. Bucs are a team of so many needs and he takes a kicker…again. the man has some real issues and needs to go… should’ve been fired with Koetter
April 27th, 2019 at 2:12 pm
How about G, RB, DL or KR/PR.
They couldn’t get a kicker as a FA after the draft! Is Licht trying to get fired!
April 27th, 2019 at 2:13 pm
Classic troll move Jason lol!!
April 27th, 2019 at 2:13 pm
Hard to imagine a scenario in which they were at risk of not being able to get this guy in the 7th.
Nor a scenario in which it would matter
April 27th, 2019 at 2:13 pm
Hmmmm. Bwhahaha!!!!! Bizarro world at its finest. Go Bucs!
April 27th, 2019 at 2:14 pm
Look up the rate of how many 5th rounders never even get the chance to put on a uniform.
Or don’t an continue overract. You kneejerkers are fun to laugh at.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:14 pm
What will it take to get Gump fired?
April 27th, 2019 at 2:14 pm
GUMP!
Licht is an idiot.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:15 pm
Licht panicked when he realized there were no more LSU linebackers or random defensive backs left on the board.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:15 pm
To be positive, I like this pick for the same reasons I liked the Aguayo pick at that time. FG kickers are winning and losing games (mainly losing) at a higher rate than ever. You need an accurate kicker.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:16 pm
LOL! Joe puts up a pic of aguayo
April 27th, 2019 at 2:16 pm
Maybe he’s reserving the 7th round for a place holder
April 27th, 2019 at 2:16 pm
There were players on the board that I thought were better picks but we shall see. It’s not the end of the world to draft a kicker. I read an article that said he could be the next Justin Tucker. Also NFL radio said the Bears were about to take him. Most 5th round picks aren’t successful. If he’s not good we just cut him.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:16 pm
Say the same thing
Jimmy jack
You can’t be a real person. I support many Bucs everything
This guy would go undrafted
Maybe 7th round flyer
Jason Licht is now Jason dead to me
April 27th, 2019 at 2:16 pm
Dang, our team must have really been coached bad last year because I am not sure how we got better personnel wise, so we must’ve be really, really good and we didn’t know it. Go Jaboo, an you imagine being a player on the Bucs watching this or better yet, being Devin White.
The wait and see game. Go Bucco Bruce.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:18 pm
Not really about how many 5th rounders make it or not. It’s about the value and possibilities of a much greater need being able to have a shot at making it.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:18 pm
Thanks for saying that JimmyJack and being a voice of reasoning. Although not a popular choice and will be scrutinized, he is a really good kicker (you won’t find many saying the opposite). He has a better chance of being a contributor and making the team as a 5th round pick than most. And I think we can all agree, our kicker situation has been horrible for years and needs to be addressed. This will never be a popular pick though. It’s a 5th rounder, not a 2nd.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:18 pm
Hey Glazers, you did this to yourself you inbred morons. Worst owners in the NFL. You should’ve fired Licht after the 2017 season went up in smoke. So glad to see you’ve let the destruction continue for 2 more seasons. Hell give Licht a lifetime extension at this point so I can root for the Browns.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:20 pm
Definitely surprised with this draft. How many games in the Licht’s TB tenure has he witnessed losses by missed FG’s? I watch all the games, the kicking game has been pretty ridiculous
April 27th, 2019 at 2:20 pm
You can’t make this stuff up!!! It’s not necessarily the picks Licht is making that I’m upset over…they are needs, but it feels like we reached a round or two for almost every pick in this draft outside of the first one. I just have to hope the coaches know what they needed even if I’m not seeing the master plan for victory unfolding in front of us.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:21 pm
JimmyJack
Top of the 5th rd…may as well say 4th rd kicker, for fks sake.
I tried not to be negative regarding the the picks eyebrow raising picks 2nd, 3rd, and 4th rds…but I can’t take it anymore!
Glazers….fire Licht before the draft is over.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:23 pm
It takes a special kind of idiot…
April 27th, 2019 at 2:24 pm
It takes a special kind of idiot…
April 27th, 2019 at 2:24 pm
WTF! Seriously I just can’t anymore. I used to defend Idiot’s drafts but I can’t anymore. I was talking to my friends last night and said that he should’ve been fired then, now he definitely need to go.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:28 pm
ATrain Joe Blocked
April 27th, 2019 at 2:31 pm
A kicker in the 5th round is the best player available? Why?
April 27th, 2019 at 2:32 pm
Every pick is a gamble especially 5th round and below. A kicker has a higher chance of actually making team and making a big impact.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:33 pm
I know what to type Joe.
The Gay kicker is what’s called the coup de grace.
Just when the draft is flopping around on the floor, mortally wounded, you put it out of it’s misery with a bullet through the bucking ear.
Fire Licht tonight.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:33 pm
Bird thats Jimmy Jackoff Jerk to you. It seems Ahole Licht is going out of his way to piss off the fans. This draft will certainly help ticket sales. Not
April 27th, 2019 at 2:40 pm
@JJ
You are so correct sir! Just googled for some %’s to back up your point.
The first round gives you a 63% chance of finding a starter. The second round gives you a 27% chance, the third a 17% chance, then it really plummets from there with 8% in the fourth and 6% in the 7th. This is why you frequently can have as much success with UDFA’s.
IE Whether it’s this kicker or an OL or DL there is less than a one in ten chance the guy will make it.
A reminder though…yesterday I found a more specific breakout of the first round….breakdown…1-5 77% of success…White has a 3 in 4 shot of making it. There are NO sure picks. QB’s seem to represent the biggest gambles.
6-10 62% the rest of the round is near 50% so when you average the ENTIRE 1st round that is where that 63% figure comes in. But 63% is far lower than for picks 1-5.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:43 pm
Jason Lichts toads! Ridiculous pick for the 5th round. He probably drafts kickers early in his fantasy football league too. What an idiot!
April 27th, 2019 at 2:46 pm
You know… it’s not the draft we wanted. It’s the draft we have.
The one thing to remember,
This new coaching staff is better than the previous one.
Young guys on this team will improve.
Guys we didn’t like last year will get better.
Most importantly, the schemes will be better. As will the results.
Go Bucs!!
April 27th, 2019 at 2:50 pm
This draft seems so bad, that in Bucland, it may be the best ever!?
That is my most positive spin.
I’m not drunk but, should be.
April 27th, 2019 at 2:50 pm
Actually liked the Bucs draft until this. It’s likely he wouldn’t even have been drafted.
“Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it”
– Something Licht obviously never read
April 27th, 2019 at 3:02 pm
Arians son kicked in the NFL….couldn’t we have just trotted him out and blamed it on nepotism?
April 27th, 2019 at 3:08 pm
As others have said, you can’t make this stuff up. –Go Bucs!
April 27th, 2019 at 3:09 pm
At least now we know which jersey 813broccoli will constantly wear!!!!!!!!!!
2019 will reveal answers to the sheep, that the “real” fans already know!!!!!!!!!!!!
Go Bucs!!!!!!!!!!
48hrs until the return of “The Buc Realist” !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
April 27th, 2019 at 3:13 pm
Unbelievable. A pk. smh….
April 27th, 2019 at 3:54 pm
God hates us.
So does Licht obviously.
April 27th, 2019 at 4:24 pm
are you kidding??? i am speechless.. 2 premium picks on kickers in 3 years???? no wonder we have drafted 6/7 corners in 2 years and have the worst secondary in the league..
this is insanity..
April 27th, 2019 at 4:52 pm
Thank you StPete…….I’m no good at the internet or I’d look it up myself.
So there you have it. 6% chance to find a starter. That means if Gay win the job and performs he was a good pick.
BTW guess what types of careers many 5th rounds wind up with?
Special Teams…..Ponder that then go ask Mommy for a warm ba-ba.
April 27th, 2019 at 5:41 pm
They just called him the Mormon Janikoski! I hope he does well for the Bucs!
April 27th, 2019 at 9:04 pm
I think I like it.
April 27th, 2019 at 11:46 pm
This is a big F-U to the fans. Simple as that.
April 28th, 2019 at 12:43 am
Since when has a fifth rounder been a premium pick. Ha ha ha ha ha!!!!! Why isn’t everyone crying about the Browns picking a kicker just a short time later. At least they got the one who is considered the best in college this year. By the way, he has made 8 of 11 over 50 yards. When is the last time we had anyone that could kick the long one accurately?
April 28th, 2019 at 11:53 am
These picks are just as much Arian’s as they are Licht. If not more so.
I’ve given up on this franchise until there are new owners.
April 28th, 2019 at 10:33 pm
Lol. Defenders of the faith. Losers.
