Happy Birthday, Joe Tryon!
April 30th, 2021
Drafted on birthday.
New Bucs edge rusher Joe Tryon will remember this night forever.
Well, yeah, sure. He got drafted how could he not forget. Oh, he will remember the date. Because Tryon was selected by the Bucs on his birthday.
It seems, hearing from Tryon and the Bucs, there was no way he was getting past Tampa Bay at No. 32.
“I know the Buccaneers were interested,” Tryon said. “They interviewed me several times. They told me if I was there at 32, they were going to pick me.”
Tryon said no hard feelings about being the last guy picked in the first round. He said he was much more concerned about who picked him than where he was picked.
“I was worried about getting picked to the right place,” Tryon said.
And he boasted he plans to listen and take to heart everything Jason Pierre-Paul and Shaq Barrett say.
“I am going to be a sponge, dude,” Tryon said. “They have played at a high level for the past decade. I can’t wait to soak it all in. It’s a big-time opportunity.”
Tyron said not to worry about him sitting out a year at Washington.
“I wasn’t just working out,” Tryon said. “I was doing football activities. I worked with [former Seahawks defensive lineman] Cliff Avril. I can’t wait to get on a field and show that.”
As for who he tries to pattern his game after, Tyron said it would be Chandler Jones.

I like the pick. I would have liked Barmore as well. Maybe it was the scheme fit if it was a close call as Tryon-Shoyinkang has been playing in a 3-4 system hybrid system.
It seems to me that he WAS a workout warrior in his 2020 opt out year. His Instagram account is filled with pictures of him working out. His body seems much more ripped now then it was a year ago.
Tryon-Shoyinkang seems like a fit to me. All I care about is whether it works for our defense

I like what he said about going to the right team rather then where he got drafted. He’s come to the right team loaded with vets who will bring him along. Of course you have to have the want to for learning, and he has that. The skies the limit if he maxes out.
