The Bucs are on the clock with the 14th pick. The top 4 offensive tackles have already been selected as well as Derrick Brown. However, WR Henry Ruggs III, DT Javon Kinlaw, QB Jordan Love, and OT Josh Jones are still available. TB receives three calls from other teams looking for a trade.
First is Miami. They selected QB Tua Tagovailoa with their first pick and now want to select Henry Ruggs III to give their new QB a friendly target. They are fairly certain that Denver will use their 15th pick to select Ruggs. Miami will trade their 18th pick and 70th pick. TB will likely be able to still select Josh Jones if they agree to the trade, but Kinlaw will be selected by Atlanta at 16.
Next TB receives a call from the Vikings. They want Javon Kinlaw and are willing to trade the 22nd pick, 89th pick, 105th pick and a 3rd round pick in 2021. Kinlaw will not get past Atlanta sitting at number 16. However, TB also thinks that if Miami loses out on this trade they will select Josh Jones at number 18. TB could elect to pick another OT such as Ezra Cleveland or Isaiah Wilson at number 22 and double up with another O-lineman with pick 85 or pick 105. Candidates would probably include OTs Lucas Niang or Robert Hunt, or guards such as Damien Lewis, Tyler Biadasz, or Kevin Dotson (teammate of Robert Hunt and maybe the best run blocker in his peer group).
Next TB receives a call from New England who want to pick Jordan Love. They put on the table two offers. The first offer is to trade picks 23, 98, 100, and a 3rd round pick in 2021. The second offer is to trade pick 23, 100 and Julian Edelman. NE is in a rebuilding mode and they decide to get some value for Edelman now.
Of course TB could also select any of the 4 players and pass on all trades.
I am interested in what option you would select if you were the TB GM and your reason for making your decision. A lot to decide in 20 minutes............
