Sources with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have told WalterFootball.com that there are big supporters in the organization for drafting Mississippi State cornerback Johnthan Banks. He has some real fans in the Bucs' front office who believe the team should target him with their first-round pick. It is no secret that the Buccaneers are in dire need of cornerback help, and Banks is the consensus second-rated corner in draft after Alabama's DeMarcus Milliner. The latter won't make it the Bucs pick at 13.
Sources with the team say that the Bucs have so many other needs and can't trade up. The defensive line, offensive line, tight end and a number of other positions need an infusion of talent and/or depth. They say with all those needs trading for Milliner is unlikely.
From speaking with sources, it sounds more realistic for Tampa Bay to try and find a partner to trade down with while targeting Banks.
This is from walterfootball.com's daily rumour mill but they seem to have a lot more info on this then anything else so far and they also correctly predicted that the Bucs were going to draft Adrian Clayborn 2 years ago so this pick is very likely considering we really need a CB:
http://walterfootball.com/seniorbowl2013rumors4.phpHow can this affect the Darelle Revis option and getting a D Lineman in the draft?
Wouldn't be surprised if we drafted him in Round 1 after trading down then trade back up into the 1st and 2nd round exactly like last year and pick up someone like Sylvester Williams at the end of 1 or end of 2 then draft either another CB or maybe a TE
