I was in on interior DL, due to how long Suh is going to be around and what might the price tag be on Vea moving forward..can’t have enough DL/Edge….corner is a huge need but if you get the rush and pressure the corners can be adequate then
TE……..Gronk is about done and OJ never started. I think all the work these backup CB’s are getting WILL pay off and we will see a gem or two shine. We need CB though
Bucs need to seriously start thinking about Brady’s replacement. Them 2 they got now ? Definitely not the answer. For now though, we need to get to the QB on the defensive end.
Cornerbacks get injured at one of the highest rates in the last few years with all the focus on passing 60 percent of the time. Over 30 cornerbacks have gone on IR this year alone.
And the decline from a good corner to just a guy is huge.
I think they should do what should have done in this years draft. Since there are no many spots available in the roster either you trade for future picks or you trade all your late picks and draft 3 or 4 players in the first two days of the draft. Corner, Edge, a RB since i think Rojo will be leaving. You can find players like Britt and the others we drafted in the later rounds as FA or UFA. Trade those picks and move up some spots in the earlier rounds and take 3 or 4 highly rated players. Go Bucs
I’m with Dusty IDL both for the reasons he gave and draft value. CB, RB later in the draft. Qb is a position that does need to be addressed soon too. Is there someone the coaches really believes to be a diamond in the rough? How do the coaches honestly feel about Trask one year in? As fans it’s difficult to really know.
-Edge Rusher (can’t have too many)
-Interior Defensive Lineman (can’t have too many)
-Cornerback (can’t have too many)
-Tight End (past their prime/young & unproductive)
I voted Edge Rusher. It’s the most important position on that side of the ball, JPP90 is past his prime and fading due to injury, and SB58 needs a legitimate threat on the left side, otherwise he becomes largely unproductive. JTS9 is gonna see his snap count go way up, imo.
It’s interesting to me that there wasn’t an option to vote for inside linebacker.🤔
The top two are definitely correct.
I say interior D lineman first because of Suh’s age and he’s been pretty invisible this year.
Cornerback goes 4 deep with Delaney who has been pretty decent given his opportunities. I do not count Sherman because he is a temporary hold. But drafting one in the first 3 rounds is definitely wise given today’s pass happy NFL.
I would also say linebacker. I don’t know if Britt is going to be the guy to replace LVD, but they need depth there and a future replacement for a coverage fast tackling machine.
My top 4 picks (in no particular order because it depends on who’s available and how much depth is at each draft position)—-
DT
CB
LB
TE
(TE because Gronk isn’t playing much longer, OJ still has not shown much, and Brate is getting older and can’t block)
You have to take what the draft gives you when you are picking at the bottom. Covid craziness allowed a beast to fall to 32. If he had not opted out of his last season he might have been a top ten pick.

A QB to replace Kyle Trask by week 6 next season
November 9th, 2021 at 10:38 am
LT

Corner / interior dline and running back
November 9th, 2021 at 10:55 am
Corner. But then D-line. Every year every team should add a piece to D-line and o-line in the draft and FA
November 9th, 2021 at 10:55 am
I’m with Doosh. Guard but no LT??? If I gotta cut a fat contract it’s gonna be Donnie first.
November 9th, 2021 at 10:55 am
Never have enough corners.
Cornerbacks get injured at one of the highest rates in the last few years with all the focus on passing 60 percent of the time. Over 30 cornerbacks have gone on IR this year alone.
And the decline from a good corner to just a guy is huge.

Need a couple of zone capable corner backs. Licht seems to only draft man coverage guys, and it is a hit or miss project.
It is easier to fake man coverage and switch to a zone look than the other was around.
November 9th, 2021 at 11:12 am
Bucs should’ve drafted CB’s in rd’s 2 & 3 this year. Now, we’re screwed w/ Trask & Darden

Or, better yet, move Wirfs to LT and draft a RT.

‘Other’- Specifically DEPTH. We have players at every position young and old. Our issues thus far are more depth oriented. IMO, of course.
November 9th, 2021 at 2:41 pm
Historically good teams, draft well.
November 9th, 2021 at 2:46 pm
“Moving the O-Line around” if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
November 9th, 2021 at 4:45 pm
Quarterback.
Come on, people. We do not want to wait until Brady retires.

OJ Howard and Gronk not dependable to stay healthy and Brate not the best blocking TE. We need TE to protect Brady and improve red zone play.
