I just don't see any scenario where a DT is BPA is R1. I don't have an issue drafting a DT later. I've seen Deone Walker fall to R3. That's excellent value for a guy like him.

I kinda feel like we're in no mans land in the first... The talent is all the same from like 14-30. 

I'd very much like to trade back if possible.

I think Harmon is worthy of our pick at DT but I also think he could be available early 2nd round.

Just feel like everything is negotiable where we draft...

@firebowles2023 - there are 3 guys that could very well fall to us, that are top 15 talent. If one of them is there, I’d hope we wouldn’t trade down.

i don't follow it that closely. Who are you thinking of?

I'm getting worried about the reports linking the Bucs and Campbell. It's not a position worth taking at 19 unless he's a special player and I don't think he is. Also I'm on the side that SVD is good and I have him penciled in comfortable as a starter. So Campbell, coming off recent labrum surgery, would have to beat out Dennis and Walker. 

If Green or Starks are there they have to be the pick over Campbell. They're better players at a more important position. Offensively, the guys at 19 that are worth it are Warren, Tet and Banks. Disappointed they re-signed Bredeson, thought that was an easy opportunity to upgrade.

@bucsbits I’d be happy if Green, EZ, or Barron are still available at 19. If all 3 were there I’d take Green, then Ez, then Barron.

Green isn't on the board. 

EZ will most likely be there, and I'd be shocked if he wasn't the pick.

Hard pass on Campbell.

I don't think the mock drafters are taking the injury situation into account.   Bowles puts a lot of importance into the OTAs and training camp and Campbell will likely miss all of that.  That puts into question what he would be able to contribute during the season.   Tackling is important for all defenders of course, but for ILBs their specialty is taking on running backs and tight ends at full speed.  They are usually the leading tacklers on their team.  So the shoulder is going to take more punishment than any other position.  And we'd have two ILBs coming back from that injury.  I'll be shocked if the Bucs draft Campbell in the first round, in fact I think he'll fall well into round 2.

I see Ezierauku described as a Day 2 pick.  It's one thing if we're picking around 30, but we're picking at 19.  It may be a bit early to pick him regardless of how much the Bucs like him.  He may be a tad bit undersized to go that high.

If Vea is injured and we can't stop the tush push, we are basically ceding the NFC to the Eagles

wow that is one special play!

It converts a 1st down or TD 86% of the time, so yeah.

You're right. 

We should really be pouring our assets into stopping the "Tush Push".

Well, only if we want to beat the Eagles.  But if that's not a big deal then don't worry about it.

@donkey_hunter - You have no clue if Green is on or off the board. Bad decision if we pass on him. And I didn’t say anything about Campbell. I said Barron, as in Jahdae Barron.

@catherder - EZ won’t last until the 2nd day. I hope we take him if he’s available and Green is gone.

Again, you’re right. 

Our struggles against them recently have been well documented.

Never said you did. Hence, why I didn’t quote you.
