As the Bucs move through their pre-draft preparation, they are now hosting players for Top 30 visits. These visits allow the team to bring in players for private meetings at the team facility so they can get a better idea of who the prospect is in a less time-crunched setting. Teams are allowed to schedule 30 of these visits.

Players who live or played college ball within 50 miles of the team facility do not count against these 30 visits. This bodes well for the Bucs because Florida is a prep football mecca and have Florida, UCF and USF within that range, allowing them to bring in a plethora of players without reducing their Top 30 number.

Teams use these visits for various reasons, and just because a player is not hosted does not mean a team is not high on them. These visits can be used as a smokescreen to make other teams think they are high on a player. They can also use them to get to know a less-heralded prospect who is projected to go late in the draft.

One of the most critical components of these visits is the fact teams can use their own doctors to look into medical questions they may have about a player. This gives the team additional context on how comfortable they may be with actually selecting the player in the upcoming 2023 NFL Draft.
