I love this draft. We filled every need minus maybe an outside CB. Are the players right? It'll be fun to find out.
Take Bain out and insert a reach at edge there... Then what do you think of the draft?
Hurst is a home run WR in the third like Godwin and McMillan.
Capehart is going to be part of the rotation.
Schrauth can't be worse than Feeney and has more upside than Bredeson.
Scott may be the starting nickel.
I think there is a lot to like about this draft outside of Bain.
Agree. Licht is good, not great, but good. A trait this franchise has not had a lot of in its history.Everyone misses.
Some more than others
If everyone is being consistent in their expressed opinions then Licht has to be one of the top GMs in the NFC since at least 2019?
The Bucs have been very competitive in that time frame, much of that time with an "incompetent" head coach. Again, if we are trying to stay consistent in the analysis.
The key performers during that window have included numerous Licht draft choices. Wirfs, Evans, Godwin, Goedeke, Vea, White, Davis, Dean, Marpet, Cappa, SMB . . more recently Egbuka, Irving. McMillan, Barton, Mauch, Tykee Smith, Diaby.
He also directly brought a SB to Tampa with free agents and a HC who still impacts the Bucs to this day as a VP.
Far from perfect, but hardly "bad" by any stretch.
he has positions he’s drafted for which he excels (o-line, WR), positions he’s sucked (QB, Edge) then later improved or gotten lucky (RB, Edge), and positions he’s meh (ILB/Corner).
Overall, he’s been good and worked to improve (his luck)?
He has been pretty good at free agent targets/signings, with a few exceptions.
One of the best we’ve had here, albeit that’s a short list.
