Drafting a RB in the first round is overrated

Yeah I said it.

And since we are on the subject let continue with that train of thought:

1. NFL is a passing league

Bucs FO needs to continue to add talent to the OL (particular pass blocking OT) and add a true #2 WR on the outside. Go all in and sign a FA WR and draft a WR in the top three picks if you have to.

2. Bucs shouldn't panic in the draft

This draft is DEEP at WR and RB, so it is not disaster if the Bucs first two picks are not at RB and WR. But on the other hand if the Bucs don't draft a RB AND WR I would be utterly disappointed.

3. Rest of resources once WR/RB/OL have been addressed should go to bolstering defensive line depth. Safety upgrade would be nice. But not likely in the cards unless a lot of things fall in the Bucs favor in the draft or free agency.

So in summary, fix the lines, upgrade WR2, add a young three down RB, possibly upgrade one of the safety spots.

P.S.

Adding a free agent kicker would be a big upgrade to this team. Playoff teams need reliable kickers.

Do the Bucs want to be a playoff team? Start looking at upgrading the kicker spot and stop worrying about drafting a RB in the first round.
