Bucs Make Franchise History
April 24th, 2020Never forget 2020. It’s a year the Bucs broke a franchise mold.
In a year of college football that was dominated by the SEC with 15 players drafted in the first round from the Southeastern Conference, the Bucs bucked the trend.
With their first two selections in the 2020 draft, the Bucs turned their attention north to the other money-making football conference.
Scott Smith of Buccaneers.com shares this history weekend for the Bucs.
With the selection of Minnesota S Antoine Winfield, Jr. in the second round following last night’s choice of Iowa T Tristan Wirfs, the Buccaneers have opened a draft with two straight Big Ten players for the first time in their 45-year history.

So there you have it. Bucs AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht proved to the folks of west-central Florida that football is also played north of the Ohio River.
Now if only Licht can find someone from the Midwest that can run the ball.

I wanted Zach Baun so badly and the F-ING SAINTS traded up two spots in front of us in the third to get him. Unhappy.

DT Raequan Williams……will probably have to move back into the 4th

Williams went undrafted. We did get Davis though. He is a very interesting prospect from an athletic standpoint.

40 of the first 64 picks from the SEC do the math
