Final 2019 Bucs Mock Draft Roundup

The usual suspects. All good players who will help our team. Couple of more days we’ll have our answers, but the debate will rage over weather we made the right picks. I think it’ll be White with the first pick. In the 2nd, and 3rd I think the talent is still deep at DT, and DE, but the Bucs go 2nd round RT, or RG. We signed a vet RG, have Cappa who will compete there, so I say RT in the 2nd. Third round on I’m picking my DT’s, DE’s. After that BPA, players who everyone feels slipped, rather then reach for glory.

More and more I find myself hoping the Bucs take Ed Oliver or Montez Sweat if the big three are off the board. I can’t stomach taking a MLB 5th overall no matter how good he projects to be.

Which Matt Miller do I believe?

I am leaning towards DT or OLB/EDGE with the first pick. Any of the top guys will do. Then go with the opposite spot in the second, unless a really good OG or OT fall to us in the second. As much as we need Oline help, PLEASE do not take one in the first round unless we trade way back. I don’t think any of them are of the can’t miss variety that would warrant a pick anywhere in the top half of the first.

White is not worth a spot 5 pick. Since I am not in favor of picking him, that means the Bucs will pick him. I have gotten the first round pick wrong most times, might as well keep it going. I just don’t see the need for a 6-foot inside linebacker when we have severe defensive line needs and cornerback needs.

Barring one of the top three falling to us at five I believe the reason Licht will pull the trigger on White is this is not a deep draft for linebackers and we have a strong need with the position. We will still be able to get a quality pick to replace McCoy in rounds two or three. From what we have read, Devon White brings strong leadership traits and has never got in trouble off the field so he checks a a lot more boxes than just his athletic ability. I understand your point on middle linebacker at the top of the draft but barring injury, I think this kid will step right in and never look back.

Bet the Farm. Bucs pick Devin White. Everyone in the NFL knows it. Unless someone offers them the farm for the #5. Bucs zeroed in on White months ago. Once Alexander was gone there never was any other choice. (Assuming that Williams and Allen are taken)

I keep hearing comparisons of Devin White to Ray Lewis, but everybody knew who Ray Lewis was coming out of Miami. You always saw highlights of him in games and firing up his team on Sports Center. I’ve only heard of Devin White during the draft process. I didn’t see the the same type of highlights that Ray Lewis had. Yes, he won the Butkus and was an All-American, but there have been plenty of Butkus winning All-American LB’s that never came close to what Ray Lewis meant to the Ravens. His HoF speech was one for the ages!

The Bucs might draft a linebacker, but hopefully not White at 5. The Bucs have been good at identifying linebackers later in the draft.

I hope the only offensive position they draft is running back, also later in the draft.

DT is a must with GMC gone soon and Allen and Nacho on one year deals.

DE/OLB is a must with Nassib, Spence, Barrett on 1 year deals. JPP has two years left on his deal but is 31.

Cornerback is another need with VH3 on his last year.

Why hasn’t anyone Mocked the Bucs biggest need on Defense. CB? We all know that what we think, what the Draft Media “experts” think isn’t what NFL executive and coaches think! For all we know the Bucs could have a CB or OT/G high on their draft board.

Draftwire.com comes the closest to what I think the Bucs’ 7-round draft picks will be, or at least they got most of the positions right. Chad Reuter at NFL.com, on the other hand, provided some comic relief with almost all of his picks, except the first round pick of Josh Allen.

@libucsfan93 Very true about CB and maybe the OL too. I think the Bucs will definitely take a CB. Maybe as early as the 2nd round.
In rounds 1-3, the Bucs need to come away with starters at DT, DE/OLB, CB.
Rounds 4-7 it would be nice if BPA were LB, RB, OL, QB, and another DT. I’m guessing a draft day McCoy trade results in a 5th round pick for the Bucs.

No WR’s, no TE’s, no Safeties, no Specialists

But, if we draft White, doesn’t that make D Buchanan expendable? Thought it would be Buchanan and David in nickel and David and Minter in base 3-4. Either White or Buchanan would have to b on the bench. I hope we can get a Dlineman or an OLB/EDGE with our #5. Then the rookie can start with S Barrett in base and JPP and the rookie or Nassib can play in nickel

There are so many good defensive linemen and 3-4 outside linebackers this year. I think the Bucs should stick with productive players who are tenacious at getting after the ballcarrier or QB. Adding a CB could be an early priority also. Hopefully the Bucs can trade back to pick up an extra couple picks.

In order at DT/DE/OLB/CB, I like: Bosa, Q. Williams, Oliver, J. Allen, Sweat, Wilkins, Burns, Ferrell, D. Lawrence, Simmons, G.Williams, Z. Allen, Tillery, Ferguson, Love, Saunders, Winovich, Mullen, and Polite. I think if the Bucs can get 3 of the players on that list, then they will be better immediately.

We need an OT and an OG. If ‘this isn’t the draft to do that’ then Bust Licht should have done that in one of the prior five drafts when ‘it was the time’ and we’re left revisiting the subject of ‘compounding damage’ from multiple years of bad drafts

And here we are again talking “need, need and more need” when we “need” to be talking BPA. Ok, we “need” a DT to replace GMC. But unless the remaining ones at # 5 are the best player……….take the best player!

When need meets talent as B.A. said. I’m not happy with our LB group. David isn’t getting any younger, or better, and he’s our best. The FA’s we picked up are just guys who the staff is similar with. Bond sucks, Beck is done, Kwon is gone, Cichy is injured. You want to roll with that group? With, Kamara, McCaffery, Freeman, running up our soft belly? We got some guys on the D line, and will draft more, but our second level has nothing, and that will be exposed by the backs in our division. White can be the backbone this spineless defense needs.

Devin White is a tackling machine with tremendous speed reminds me of Hardy Nickerson and for those of you who just read what I compared him too and scoffed than you truly haven’t watched Devin White play in college kid is a stud and will be a force to come in the middle of our defense for years to come.

I actually like Scott Reynolds mock the best and love those selections if those players were available

Trade down and find a way to get Clemson DT Wilkins and Michigan LB Bush. Then take Kentucky corner. 3 day one starters at all 3 levels in defense. Championship! 🙂

I like Oliver, but if we go DT with 5th spot and Q is gone, I say take Clemson DT Wilkins. He is a beast.

Josh Allen, Q Williams, or Oliver at 5. Burns or Bush with a trade back. I am getting nervous about White being the pick. Most mocks seem to align the way they did when they ALL projected us to take VH3.. Hopefully they’re all being lazy, and just looking at Kwon leaving for their answers.

Welcome back JonnyG. Hope everything is going well for you and your now grown-up son.

I think Devin White is both a need and perhaps the BPA. I’d have no issue with taking him.
