WEBVTT - Free Agent Signings, Previewing the NFC South | Bucs Insider 0:00:04.640 --> 0:00:07.640 Welcome to Buccaneers Inside are Live, presented by Miller like 0:00:07.760 --> 0:00:10.880 Casey Phillips here with senior writer editor Scott Smith, and boy, 0:00:10.960 --> 0:00:14.159 do we have things to talk about today. Just a 0:00:14.160 --> 0:00:16.800 few things have happened with the team across the league. 0:00:17.160 --> 0:00:19.759 It's been you know, mostly slow, but just a couple 0:00:19.800 --> 0:00:21.680 of things. First time, starting to think we maybe should 0:00:21.680 --> 0:00:23.680 do one of these every day. Yes, would have enough. 0:00:23.800 --> 0:00:26.200 We would, I mean normally in the off season, you're sin, 0:00:26.280 --> 0:00:27.600 You're going, what are we going to talk about? In 0:00:27.600 --> 0:00:29.680 this time? We do not have enough time to get 0:00:29.680 --> 0:00:31.040 to all the things that have happened. So first of all, 0:00:31.080 --> 0:00:32.520 we knew last week we had to do a little 0:00:32.520 --> 0:00:34.880 bit of the tap dancing if there were reports out 0:00:34.880 --> 0:00:37.639 there about some things that were not confirmed yet. Now 0:00:37.680 --> 0:00:40.559 some of those things have become confirmed this week. So 0:00:40.680 --> 0:00:42.480 let's start with with some of those things that First 0:00:42.479 --> 0:00:45.040 of all, in the wide receiver room, Russell Gauge and 0:00:45.120 --> 0:00:47.920 Chris Godwin are two things that have become for real 0:00:48.080 --> 0:00:50.279 since the last time we did this show. So tell 0:00:50.360 --> 0:00:53.080 us about both of those deals. Well, the Russell Gauge 0:00:53.120 --> 0:00:55.280 contract was the one that we had to speculate about 0:00:55.360 --> 0:00:58.080 last time, but that has been officially announced now and 0:00:58.120 --> 0:01:00.600 then Chris Godwin, who already had the franchise, has tagging him, 0:01:00.600 --> 0:01:02.120 so we were pretty sure he was gonna be around 0:01:02.120 --> 0:01:04.440 this year anyway. Uh, what happened with him and the 0:01:04.440 --> 0:01:06.480 team is with is the goal really of the franchise 0:01:06.520 --> 0:01:09.360 tag is it extends your negotiating period. It gives you 0:01:09.400 --> 0:01:12.640 more time where only the Bucks can negotiate with with Chris, 0:01:12.640 --> 0:01:15.000 and they got a deal done, which is fantastic because 0:01:15.280 --> 0:01:17.279 as we all know, and as we've talked about many times, 0:01:17.520 --> 0:01:19.959 he's just such a critical part of this offense. And 0:01:20.000 --> 0:01:22.480 I think when Tom Brady decided to come back and 0:01:22.520 --> 0:01:25.199 shot a group chat to Chris and Mike right before 0:01:25.200 --> 0:01:29.600 he announced it, it made you even more um adamant 0:01:29.600 --> 0:01:31.440 about getting Chris god went back and back in the field, 0:01:31.440 --> 0:01:32.640 and you know, he's coming back from a torn a 0:01:32.720 --> 0:01:35.160 c l so there is a slight chance that he 0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:36.760 might not be ready to go right at the very 0:01:36.800 --> 0:01:38.880 beginning of the season. Though knowing him, I say there's 0:01:38.880 --> 0:01:40.880 a good chance he will be ready. But that's another 0:01:40.880 --> 0:01:43.319 thing that Russell Gage gives you. He gives you, um, 0:01:43.920 --> 0:01:46.760 you know, if if Chris isn't quite ready to go, 0:01:47.160 --> 0:01:48.920 Russell Gate is already shown over the last couple of 0:01:48.960 --> 0:01:50.760 years that he could step in for a really high 0:01:50.880 --> 0:01:53.720 level wide receiver like Calvin Ridley or a couple of 0:01:53.760 --> 0:01:56.680 years ago, Julio Jones and keep his team, you know, 0:01:56.880 --> 0:01:59.040 on top and and really produce like a number one. 0:01:59.480 --> 0:02:01.480 When you do have Mike Evans and Chris Godwin and 0:02:01.560 --> 0:02:04.640 Russell Gauge, then you have what looks like the makings 0:02:04.640 --> 0:02:06.560 of a really good three white package. And as you know, 0:02:07.080 --> 0:02:09.560 the Buccaneers on offense tend to go three wide or 0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:12.280 eleven personnel more than fifty of the time. So this 0:02:12.360 --> 0:02:15.760 is basically your starting formation here. And you've got Mike Evans, 0:02:15.800 --> 0:02:17.440 so we all know what he can do. Twenty seven 0:02:17.440 --> 0:02:19.400 touchdowns in the last two years, which is amazing. We 0:02:19.440 --> 0:02:21.919 all know about his thousand yards season streak. Chris god 0:02:21.960 --> 0:02:25.160 when last year got the injury and couldn't finish out 0:02:25.160 --> 0:02:27.320 the season, but by the time he was knocked out, 0:02:27.320 --> 0:02:29.200 he had ninety eight catches and was about to break 0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:31.239 the Bucks all the time record for a single season. 0:02:31.240 --> 0:02:33.400 But look at that third in the league in receptions 0:02:33.440 --> 0:02:36.600 per game, seventh in yards per game, and he's also 0:02:36.639 --> 0:02:39.520 so critical to your running attack. He's blocking makes everything better. 0:02:39.639 --> 0:02:42.480 And then you've been Russell Gauge, who, after the Falcons 0:02:42.520 --> 0:02:45.000 lost pretty much all their other receivers last year, was 0:02:45.120 --> 0:02:47.040 really really productive down the stretch. Look at that over 0:02:47.080 --> 0:02:49.160 the last eight weeks of the season, he was eighth 0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:52.000 in the NFL among all players in receptions in yards. 0:02:52.000 --> 0:02:54.400 So you've got three guys there that it's gonna be 0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:56.760 hard for an opposing defense to defend all three of those. Yeah, 0:02:56.760 --> 0:02:58.800 Tom Brady's got to be pretty happy with the choice 0:02:58.840 --> 0:03:00.720 to come back. Looking at those office, that's going to 0:03:00.760 --> 0:03:03.440 be pretty exciting. Well, another thing that is now official 0:03:03.480 --> 0:03:05.640 that we had said was reported last week was the 0:03:05.680 --> 0:03:07.840 trade for Shack Mason. So tell us what you think 0:03:07.880 --> 0:03:09.600 about him as a player and what this can mean 0:03:09.639 --> 0:03:11.680 for this offensive line, a position group that, again, just 0:03:11.720 --> 0:03:13.600 a few weeks ago, we did not know what that 0:03:13.680 --> 0:03:17.040 interior was gonna look like. It's it's an incredible trade. 0:03:17.040 --> 0:03:18.520 It's still a little bit hard to figure out how 0:03:18.520 --> 0:03:21.760 it happened to get a really quality starting guard for 0:03:21.800 --> 0:03:23.800 a fifth round pick. And he's under contract for two 0:03:23.840 --> 0:03:26.320 more years, so it's not like a one year rental. 0:03:26.680 --> 0:03:29.919 This is a guy that, uh, you know, offensive Lineman. 0:03:29.960 --> 0:03:32.000 It's hard to have stats for him other than group stats, 0:03:32.000 --> 0:03:33.600 which are actually gonna look at here in a minute 0:03:34.040 --> 0:03:37.720 or right now. Last year, the Buccaneers were first in 0:03:37.760 --> 0:03:39.720 the league and sacks allowed per pass play and really 0:03:39.760 --> 0:03:42.680 allowed the fewest stacks by any team, despite the fact 0:03:42.680 --> 0:03:45.400 that they had the most past attempts. Those really shouldn't 0:03:45.400 --> 0:03:47.800 go together. And then even though the running game wasn't 0:03:47.800 --> 0:03:50.760 necessarily a huge power for the team, they did finish 0:03:50.840 --> 0:03:52.560 right in the middle league and yards per carry, and 0:03:52.560 --> 0:03:56.520 in some more sophisticated stats that take into account situation 0:03:56.600 --> 0:03:59.440 and other things rush d v o A and adjusted 0:03:59.480 --> 0:04:01.320 line yards, both of which are on the respected site 0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:04.200 Football Outsiders, you can see they felt that the Buccaneers 0:04:04.240 --> 0:04:06.800 rush black run blocking was very good last year, top five. 0:04:07.280 --> 0:04:09.680 But then you're thinking you could lose Ryan Jensen. You 0:04:09.720 --> 0:04:12.680 could and did lose Alex Kappa, and you and Ali 0:04:12.720 --> 0:04:15.240 Marpett retired, so your entire middle of your line is 0:04:15.280 --> 0:04:17.880 wiped out. Well, Ryan Jensen resigns, that's a great thing. 0:04:17.920 --> 0:04:19.960 Aaron Stinney resigns, and it has a very good chance 0:04:19.960 --> 0:04:22.520 to step up to stine lamp. And then you top 0:04:22.560 --> 0:04:25.440 it all off by getting Shack Mason, who, like I 0:04:25.480 --> 0:04:28.200 was saying, other than the stats, kind of stats we 0:04:28.200 --> 0:04:30.320 looked at. There's not a lot of individual stats for 0:04:30.560 --> 0:04:34.080 offensive lineman other than maybe sacks allowed. But there are 0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:36.120 some services out there like PF and so on that 0:04:36.200 --> 0:04:39.720 grade uh, everybody but guards, and and he's really a 0:04:39.800 --> 0:04:42.200 highly graded guard for many years in a row. So 0:04:42.839 --> 0:04:44.719 it's a huge kid for the Buccaneers for a fifth 0:04:44.800 --> 0:04:46.880 round pick, and and it puts us back into position 0:04:46.880 --> 0:04:50.000 where the offensive line, despite would look like it could 0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:52.320 be a drastic turnover, now has a chance to once 0:04:52.320 --> 0:04:54.360 again be a really big strength for this team. Incredible 0:04:54.400 --> 0:04:57.560 and again another confirmed move from this last week, Leonard 0:04:57.560 --> 0:05:01.680 four Nett officially back resigned. Lenn we'll call that. So 0:05:01.839 --> 0:05:03.800 tell me about this deal and what you think it 0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:06.480 means now again to the offense to have this incredibly 0:05:06.520 --> 0:05:08.719 important piece back. I think this is another one of 0:05:08.760 --> 0:05:11.800 these moves that was heavily influenced by the return of 0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:14.320 Tom Brady. I think Tom Brady likes Leonard four Nett 0:05:14.600 --> 0:05:16.360 in terms of what he can do in this offense. 0:05:16.440 --> 0:05:18.400 And I would be willing to bet that the Tom 0:05:18.400 --> 0:05:20.800 Brady made his his opinions known on that and it 0:05:20.920 --> 0:05:24.200 probably made Leonard Fournette want to come back more. Right, Um, 0:05:24.480 --> 0:05:27.279 this is the chance to chase another ring. And and 0:05:27.360 --> 0:05:29.160 what you've done is you've brought back your guy who 0:05:29.200 --> 0:05:32.359 has basically been your workhorse back since the start of 0:05:32.360 --> 0:05:34.720 the playoffs in through the Super Bowl and then all 0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:36.800 last year. And he had a really good year, not 0:05:36.880 --> 0:05:39.279 just running the ball but also pass catching. At the 0:05:39.279 --> 0:05:41.360 time that he was injured and lost for like the 0:05:41.400 --> 0:05:43.600 last three weeks of this regular season for net was 0:05:43.680 --> 0:05:47.280 leading all running backs in with sixty nine receptions. So 0:05:47.600 --> 0:05:49.960 he's to do it all back that that Tom Brady 0:05:49.960 --> 0:05:52.680 obviously trust very much, then the Buccaneers trust, and after 0:05:52.720 --> 0:05:54.960 playing several years in a row on one year contracts, 0:05:54.960 --> 0:05:56.320 he's got a three year deal now, so I guess 0:05:56.320 --> 0:05:59.560 probably everybody's happy. Yeah. Part of that just real quick 0:05:59.800 --> 0:06:03.479 with the Chris Godwin signing and Leonard Fournette, because cap 0:06:03.520 --> 0:06:05.400 space is hard to come by right now, but probably 0:06:05.400 --> 0:06:07.719 will There'll be more of it as the cap rises 0:06:07.760 --> 0:06:09.880 in coming years. So those multi year deals for a 0:06:09.960 --> 0:06:12.279 Godwin and a four net are probably actually helping the 0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:14.240 Buccaneers cap right now. Yeah, that's a great point. The 0:06:14.279 --> 0:06:16.040 fact that you have the flexibility to move some money 0:06:16.040 --> 0:06:18.560 around all these you know, talks of restructuring that we've heard. 0:06:18.880 --> 0:06:21.960 When when there's just a one year deal, restructuring becomes 0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:24.360 a little little challenge. You add some years, Yeah, you 0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:26.280 gotta add some years on there to make that possible. Okay, Well, 0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:28.039 now we're going to also talk about some just like 0:06:28.080 --> 0:06:30.600 we did last week, reports of things that are out there. 0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:32.720 They are not confirmed yet, they have not been officially 0:06:32.720 --> 0:06:34.840 announced by the team, but you've probably seen them out there. 0:06:35.040 --> 0:06:38.000 We talked about Brashad Parraman last week that is still 0:06:38.120 --> 0:06:40.680 be announced, have been announced, but we did talk about 0:06:40.680 --> 0:06:42.920 the fact that again this wide receiver room shaping up 0:06:42.960 --> 0:06:45.160 to look very good this year, to have a lot 0:06:45.160 --> 0:06:48.039 of different options, when again a few weeks ago, we 0:06:48.040 --> 0:06:49.719 didn't know what it was going to look like behind 0:06:49.880 --> 0:06:52.640 basically Mike Evans for sure. Um. And then now there 0:06:52.640 --> 0:06:55.160 are a couple of new reports since the show last week. 0:06:55.240 --> 0:06:58.680 We have basically Will Golston reportedly coming back, a guy 0:06:58.680 --> 0:07:00.600 that's been with this team all most as long as 0:07:00.600 --> 0:07:02.839 anybody else at this point. And then you have the 0:07:02.839 --> 0:07:05.840 addition of a new guy in town, Logan Ryan Safety. 0:07:05.880 --> 0:07:07.480 So those again are the two reports that have not 0:07:07.520 --> 0:07:10.560 been officially announced yet, So looking at those and we 0:07:10.600 --> 0:07:12.440 kind of talked about Brashan Perriman last week, but with 0:07:12.480 --> 0:07:14.880 Logan Ryan and Will Galston tell us what those moves 0:07:14.880 --> 0:07:16.920 are when we talked about a lot of offensive moves, 0:07:17.240 --> 0:07:19.280 finally to talk about some defensive ones and what this 0:07:19.280 --> 0:07:21.240 could look like. Yeah, and you know when we talk 0:07:21.280 --> 0:07:23.600 about speculating whether these reports are accurate or not, and 0:07:23.600 --> 0:07:25.720 we can't officially announce it, I can say that the 0:07:25.720 --> 0:07:29.679 Buccaneers are holding press conferences early this afternoon for Logan 0:07:29.760 --> 0:07:31.480 Ryan and Shack Mason. I mean, you never know what 0:07:31.480 --> 0:07:34.000 they want to about me about food. It can you 0:07:34.080 --> 0:07:35.800 never know, right, Yeah, you never know, but I think 0:07:35.800 --> 0:07:38.000 he can feel pretty solid about those reports. At this point. 0:07:38.000 --> 0:07:40.400 We're not officially announcing anything, but come on, there's a 0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:42.800 press conference to talk about something with those people. Like 0:07:42.840 --> 0:07:46.360 those people there, so Will Golston, like you said, other 0:07:46.400 --> 0:07:49.760 than Levante David, he's been around the longest. He's been very, 0:07:49.880 --> 0:07:53.120 very durable throughout his career and over the nine years 0:07:53.160 --> 0:07:55.680 now I'll be going to his tent. He will have 0:07:56.040 --> 0:07:59.360 switched defensive systems several times. But when Todd Bowles got 0:07:59.400 --> 0:08:02.680 here the three years ago, so Will it also already 0:08:02.680 --> 0:08:06.040 had a solid career, but Todd Bowl's defense really rejuvenated it. 0:08:06.360 --> 0:08:09.280 He's had I think nine point five of his nineteen 0:08:09.320 --> 0:08:11.800 point five sacks in the last three years. Two years 0:08:11.800 --> 0:08:13.920 ago he led the Bucks and quarterback hits with twenty. 0:08:14.120 --> 0:08:16.720 He had another seventeen last year. And he's just a 0:08:16.720 --> 0:08:19.960 really good strong side three four defensive end when it 0:08:20.000 --> 0:08:22.600 comes to stopping the run. So he's a really good 0:08:22.600 --> 0:08:25.360 fit for this defense, and I think he really likes 0:08:25.400 --> 0:08:27.559 it here. So for those reasons, it wasn't a surprise 0:08:27.600 --> 0:08:30.720 to see him come back. Cool note about Will Galston, 0:08:31.160 --> 0:08:33.240 he has a hundred thirty six games played as a 0:08:33.280 --> 0:08:36.760 Buccaneer going into this season. That's the second most ever 0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:39.599 for a defensive lineman in franchise history. Number one is 0:08:39.640 --> 0:08:40.920 Warren Sapp was in the Hall of Fame with the 0:08:41.000 --> 0:08:43.320 Hunter forty. So by the end of this season, Will 0:08:43.360 --> 0:08:46.559 Ghoston will be the most tenured defensive lineman in franchise history, 0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:48.760 which is pretty cool for me. Yeah, that is pretty cool, Okay, 0:08:48.760 --> 0:08:51.880 And then I know we've talked about so many moves, 0:08:51.960 --> 0:08:54.280 so many things happening. That's just the Buccaneers ones not 0:08:54.320 --> 0:08:57.079 to mention all the things that have been happening across 0:08:57.120 --> 0:09:00.040 the league this free agency. It has just been a 0:09:00.440 --> 0:09:03.320 last couple of weeks, lots of shuffling where everybody thought 0:09:03.320 --> 0:09:04.959 they knew who was on what team and what was 0:09:05.000 --> 0:09:07.800 going on. I think everybody's gonna have to reassess that 0:09:07.960 --> 0:09:10.440 now recently. So tell us what the biggest things are 0:09:10.480 --> 0:09:13.040 that stand out to you, maybe outside of the Buccaneers 0:09:13.160 --> 0:09:15.880 moves in particular, of what has gone on these last 0:09:15.880 --> 0:09:17.800 couple of weeks that could affect the Buccaneers. I think 0:09:17.840 --> 0:09:20.200 if you're a Buccaneers fan over the last two or 0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:23.960 three weeks and you're filing things on Twitter, perhaps every 0:09:23.960 --> 0:09:25.720 time you look at your phone, it's given you good news. 0:09:25.800 --> 0:09:27.719 I mean, it's kind of incredible how well all this 0:09:27.800 --> 0:09:30.800 is going for the Buccaneers, because not only have we 0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:32.880 done all the moves that we've talked about, and every 0:09:32.880 --> 0:09:36.040 one of them seems like aimed at chasing another championship 0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:37.640 this year and maybe even next year we'll see what 0:09:37.640 --> 0:09:40.120 happens with Tom Brady, but all the moves that are 0:09:40.120 --> 0:09:43.120 happening around the league, the big dramatic moves that made 0:09:43.120 --> 0:09:45.880 this one of the craziest off seasons ever have been 0:09:46.600 --> 0:09:48.960 really good talent moving from the NFC to the a 0:09:49.040 --> 0:09:51.600 f C. Davante Adams goes from the Packers of the Raiders. 0:09:52.080 --> 0:09:53.800 All of a sudden, Tyreek Hill yesterday out of the 0:09:53.840 --> 0:09:55.199 blue for us. It was probably in the works for 0:09:55.200 --> 0:09:57.120 a while, and oh my gosh, Tyreek Hill is going 0:09:57.160 --> 0:09:59.480 to be traded. Well, he stayed in the a f C, 0:09:59.600 --> 0:10:02.120 but at least even get you know, pushed over into 0:10:02.160 --> 0:10:05.240 the NFC. Matt Ryan went from the NFC to the 0:10:05.280 --> 0:10:08.640 a f C. Uh tehront Armstead, the really good tackle 0:10:08.720 --> 0:10:10.520 for the Saints no longer with the Saints and now 0:10:10.559 --> 0:10:13.080 he's in Miami. Just a lot of big moves that 0:10:13.080 --> 0:10:14.480 when you look at go, we were gonna have to 0:10:14.520 --> 0:10:17.000 face those guys this year and now we don't. Right, 0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:19.719 So things just keep getting better. And when you look 0:10:19.760 --> 0:10:22.960 at it from the perspective of the quarterbacks in this division, 0:10:23.800 --> 0:10:26.240 it's kind of amazing the turnover that's been in the 0:10:26.320 --> 0:10:29.440 last couple of years. For a long time, the Buccaneers 0:10:29.480 --> 0:10:32.160 were playing in a division with with three teams that 0:10:32.240 --> 0:10:36.680 had m VP caliber quarterbacks running their offenses. And even 0:10:36.720 --> 0:10:38.920 when you tried and You've got Jameis Winson with the 0:10:38.920 --> 0:10:40.720 first overall pick, and he put up a lot of 0:10:40.720 --> 0:10:42.760 big numbers. You kind of always felt like you had 0:10:42.760 --> 0:10:45.400 the fourth quarterback in the league. Look at who was 0:10:45.440 --> 0:10:47.360 the quarter of the starting quarterbacks in this league the 0:10:47.520 --> 0:10:49.839 year before Tom Brady decided to come to the Buccaneers, 0:10:49.960 --> 0:10:52.040 and now just a couple of years later, this is 0:10:52.080 --> 0:10:55.320 what each team is featuring a quarterback. You can look 0:10:55.360 --> 0:10:57.480 at that and go, well, the Buccaneers pretty clearly have 0:10:57.800 --> 0:11:00.760 the best quarterback in the division. Right, not to take 0:11:00.800 --> 0:11:03.120 anything away from a Marcus Mariotta or at Jameis Winston, 0:11:03.800 --> 0:11:05.840 but those are teams that are, first of all, are 0:11:05.880 --> 0:11:08.960 in transition and and second of all, I don't think 0:11:09.000 --> 0:11:11.439 you can look at Marcus Mariota and say he's a 0:11:11.960 --> 0:11:14.600 He's up there with Tom bradon. So the entire landscape 0:11:14.600 --> 0:11:17.240 of the NFC South in in terms of the quarterback 0:11:17.280 --> 0:11:19.440 rankings has changed in just a couple of years, and 0:11:19.440 --> 0:11:22.199 for the Buccaneers obviously a change really good. That is incredible. 0:11:22.240 --> 0:11:24.120 And then I know we talked a little bit about 0:11:24.240 --> 0:11:26.880 the offensive line, especially because of the trade for Shack Mason. 0:11:27.240 --> 0:11:29.720 This is a group that we had said we didn't 0:11:29.720 --> 0:11:31.320 know what it was gonna look like, and maybe it 0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:33.080 was going to be a big target of the draft. 0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:34.960 And I know we're gonna talk more about this when 0:11:34.960 --> 0:11:36.959 it comes to the road of the draft, you know, 0:11:36.960 --> 0:11:38.679 when we do those videos as well. But and then 0:11:38.679 --> 0:11:40.400 the same thing with the wide receiver group, that these 0:11:40.400 --> 0:11:43.160 two position groups we just really felt like could be 0:11:43.280 --> 0:11:47.080 positions of need. And how differently we feel now. So 0:11:47.120 --> 0:11:49.000 how do you think that is going to just affect 0:11:49.080 --> 0:11:51.160 over all these moves that we've heard that are both 0:11:51.160 --> 0:11:54.920 confirmed and reported for those two position groups, how you 0:11:54.920 --> 0:11:57.720 feel about them now? Are they still targets in the draft, 0:11:57.800 --> 0:12:00.840 and what these moves mean for just we view this team. Well, 0:12:00.840 --> 0:12:03.280 I can tell you from experience doing mock drafts every 0:12:03.280 --> 0:12:06.440 week since like mid February, that it's changed quite a bit. 0:12:07.080 --> 0:12:10.480 Early on, I was definitely giving offensive guards to the 0:12:10.480 --> 0:12:13.400 Buccaneers a pick number twenty seven, like a Kenyan Green 0:12:13.600 --> 0:12:16.320 or a Zion Johnson. But it's hard to imagine the 0:12:16.360 --> 0:12:19.800 Bucks using that pick on a guard now because I 0:12:19.840 --> 0:12:22.000 think they not only have probably the guys that are 0:12:22.000 --> 0:12:23.680 gonna start, but you've got a couple other guys like 0:12:23.760 --> 0:12:27.319 Robert Hainzi, and Nick Leverett that you feel pretty good 0:12:27.320 --> 0:12:29.959 about as your depth. So if you draft a guard, 0:12:31.120 --> 0:12:33.719 I guess he's competing probably with Aaron Stenny for one 0:12:33.720 --> 0:12:36.240 of the jobs. But is that the best use of 0:12:36.280 --> 0:12:38.760 your pick at seven in the first round. If you're 0:12:38.760 --> 0:12:40.760 trying to win this year, you'd probably like to get 0:12:40.760 --> 0:12:43.200 somebody that you know is going to have a big role, 0:12:43.440 --> 0:12:46.480 either on offense or defense. And the receivers, I'm not 0:12:46.520 --> 0:12:49.760 sure if you bring in another top notch receiver, who 0:12:49.760 --> 0:12:51.720 are you taking playing time away from? Because we talked 0:12:51.720 --> 0:12:53.440 about the Big three and we showed the graphic, but 0:12:53.480 --> 0:12:56.560 you've also got Brashad Perriman probably, and Tyler Johnson and 0:12:56.559 --> 0:12:59.679 Scottie Miller and Cyril Grayson and Jalen Darden. I mean, 0:12:59.720 --> 0:13:01.200 there's a lot of guys there that you want to 0:13:01.240 --> 0:13:03.480 look at and see how they could possibly fit into 0:13:03.480 --> 0:13:05.839 your offense. And of course you always want more talents. 0:13:05.880 --> 0:13:08.080 If another great receiver drops into your lap, that's fine, 0:13:08.360 --> 0:13:10.800 but again it's not something I think that you would 0:13:10.800 --> 0:13:13.520 spend a first round draft pick on because then you're 0:13:13.559 --> 0:13:16.640 just probably you're just replacing one starter with another, Whereas 0:13:16.640 --> 0:13:18.000 you might be able to find a guy like maybe 0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:21.400 a defensive lineman or an outside linebacker that can step 0:13:21.480 --> 0:13:24.040 right into the rotation right away. Okay, well that's gonna 0:13:24.080 --> 0:13:25.839 do it for us on this edition of Buccaneers Inside 0:13:25.840 --> 0:13:28.240 our Live presented by Miller Lte. We had so much 0:13:28.280 --> 0:13:29.800 to talk about that we weren't able to get to 0:13:29.960 --> 0:13:31.839 the Facebook questions. But we will of course have the 0:13:31.840 --> 0:13:34.040 show again next week. I believe we will actually be 0:13:34.120 --> 0:13:36.280 doing it from the owners meetings, which is going to 0:13:36.400 --> 0:13:38.719 be very fun and we'll have a lot to talk 0:13:38.760 --> 0:13:40.520 about from there. To make sure you tune into that. 0:13:40.600 --> 0:13:43.719 And again if you had specific draft related questions. Every 0:13:43.760 --> 0:13:45.760 week we are shooting a road to the draft where 0:13:45.760 --> 0:13:47.720 that is all we talk about, are all the things 0:13:48.040 --> 0:13:50.800 affecting the potential draft picks of the Buccaneers. To make 0:13:50.800 --> 0:13:52.400 sure you check that out. That's gonna do it for 0:13:52.520 --> 0:13:53.760 us this week. We'll see you next time.
