The Buccaneers are another team with incentive to move down. C.J. Mosley and Eric Ebron are players who very well may get drafted in the 11-20 range, both of whom could help Tampa Bay. While they may just reach for them at No. 7, draft an offensive tackle, or even focus on their long-term quarterback if they don’t like Mike Glennon, the Buccaneers could find nice value if Sammy Watkins falls to No. 7. The Rams (2), Browns (4) and Raiders (5) are all teams who could grab the No. 1 receiver prospect. If Watkins makes it to No. 7, he’d give Tampa Bay a nice complementary weapon opposite of Vincent Jackson.
Realistic Preferred Options if Fell:
- Jadeveon Clowney, DE
- Khalil Mack, DE/LB
