pass on Wilson at 57... old rookie, injury prone... wish he was bigger (233) for a tall (6'4) LB!

The best MLB in the NFL was 236 lbs and 6’3” at the combine.

Very exciting to think that by tonight there will be three new Bucaneers identity unknown right now.  And not just practice squad guys, starters or key role players.  

Will there be a slider? Will Licht want to move up?  He could spend a 2025 pick to move up a bit.  But if the Bucs wanted to spend a 3rd Round pick to move up in the 2nd, they could move up about 15 spots to around low 40s.   I'm not sure that is going to be worth it.  But even though the Bucs stood pat in Round 1, I think they'll do at least one deal tonight to move up or down or perhaps multiple deals, but to move up to early Round 2 and get one of those big names like DeJean or Newton or McConkey unfortunately I just don't see it.

Bucs go EDGE Braswell in round 2. Continuing the building of the trenches. 

Meet your new starting edge opposite of Diaby unless JTS beats him out.

Bucs have gone interior OL, and Edge so far.  More likely they go DB next pick but there are a lot of good WRs and LBs still on the board.

Thought there were better players on the board there. Braswell at best is #2 threat on a good DL. 

Dont hate the pick just skeptical on his upside.

Would've preferred Isaac or Elliss at EDGE.

I always say go oline or dline in early round. They have done a lot of investing in those areas and we've been going to the playoffs. I like that we've invested in it again and think our drafting ability has been proving to be pretty solid. We will see how this one goes.

I agree that he isn't the best value on the board but at the same time Bowles probably sees something about him where he can have him see early playing time.  I would snap grade this pick a solid B.

Braswell is a solid pick. Gotta wonder if Kneeland would have been the pick had it not been for the Cowboys selecting him just before us. I prefer a more athletic guy like Braswell tbh.

Surprisingly CBS is giving the pick an A+.

I am not sure I would go that far but Braswell has the traits you look for in Bowles scheme.  Braswell doesn't seem like he is going to be a top edge rusher but closer to what Diaby was able to do last season.

Sliders LBs Wilson and Trotter, TE Sanders.  WRs Franklin and Wilson.  G Puni, Mahogany. QB Rattler.  

They have to take a WR here in the 3rd IMO.  The other will be a surprise - QB, RB, S??
