So you’re feeling salty the the Buccaneers didn’t go for James or Fitzpatrick? Maybe the Bucs should have grabbed a RB or DE?

Well, No!

With a defensive line that features McCoy, Allen, Unrein, Spence, Curry and JPP. Now with the addition of the wrecking ball that is Vita Vea the Buccaneers have a defensive line that can rotate quality players all 60 minutes and be effective against the run AND the pass.

What this pick has done is give Tampa Bay the best chance of keeping the opposing QB running scared every time he drops back. You decrease the time a QB has to throw and that will increase the number of errors, from missed reads to poor throws.

This pick makes sense on so many levels. The Buccaneers have a defensive line that should be feared, not only in the NFC South but the whole NFL.
