The NFL Draft is fast approaching and will be held in Nashville, kicking off on Thursday evening, April 25.
The first round selections are always announced from the podium by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, but each year the league has special guests who call out later round picks. On Thursday it was revealed former quarterback Trent Dilfer and Super Bowl MVP Dexter Jackson are Tampa Bay’s selected alumni who will call out the draft picks in rounds two and three.
Bucs legends Trent Dilfer and Dexter Jackson will announce our draft picks in the second and third rounds.

Dilfer was a first round section in 1994 and played six seasons in Tampa Bay, and helped the Buccaneers reach the playoffs in 1997, the first time the team had made the postseason since 1982.
Jackson was a 1999 fourth-round selection out of Florida State and his two first-half interceptions in the 2002 Super Bowl helped propel Tampa Bay to their first and only NFL title.
