WEBVTT - Which Draft Pick Could See Immediate Playing Time? | Bucs Insider

0:00:04.680 --> 0:00:07.920
<v Speaker 1>Bucks fans, how's everyone doing. Happy Wednesday? It's time for

0:00:07.920 --> 0:00:11.080
<v Speaker 1>Buccaneers in Sadur Live, presented by Miller Lite Casey Phillips.

0:00:11.119 --> 0:00:13.920
<v Speaker 1>He was senior writer and editor Scott Smith. And as always,

0:00:14.000 --> 0:00:16.000
<v Speaker 1>this is where we take questions from you, So if

0:00:16.000 --> 0:00:18.160
<v Speaker 1>you're not already watching on the Facebook page, you can

0:00:18.200 --> 0:00:19.919
<v Speaker 1>head on over there and leave us a question in

0:00:19.960 --> 0:00:22.959
<v Speaker 1>the comments section. I'm sure we're going to have plenty

0:00:23.079 --> 0:00:26.520
<v Speaker 1>of questions today, considering we had an entire draft since

0:00:26.560 --> 0:00:29.000
<v Speaker 1>our last one of these shows, plenty for us to

0:00:29.040 --> 0:00:31.480
<v Speaker 1>be talking about. So um, I figured as we get

0:00:31.520 --> 0:00:33.479
<v Speaker 1>people a chance to start submitting some of those questions,

0:00:34.120 --> 0:00:35.479
<v Speaker 1>the easiest way to do is to you up, what

0:00:35.520 --> 0:00:37.199
<v Speaker 1>do you think of our draft class? What are what

0:00:37.240 --> 0:00:38.600
<v Speaker 1>are the things that stick out to you about it?

0:00:38.640 --> 0:00:40.440
<v Speaker 1>And especially when we had talked so much about what

0:00:40.479 --> 0:00:42.880
<v Speaker 1>we thought the Bucks would do, what their goals would be,

0:00:43.200 --> 0:00:46.400
<v Speaker 1>what did it seem like their their main focuses were

0:00:46.440 --> 0:00:49.840
<v Speaker 1>in terms of the things they were after in that draft? Yeah,

0:00:49.880 --> 0:00:51.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean the story has been the same for weeks

0:00:51.760 --> 0:00:53.880
<v Speaker 1>now that with all the guys that Bucks were able

0:00:53.920 --> 0:00:56.400
<v Speaker 1>to bring back in free agency, they went into it

0:00:56.440 --> 0:00:59.120
<v Speaker 1>with no glaring needs which is really really rare. I mean,

0:00:59.160 --> 0:01:01.360
<v Speaker 1>the Bucks had a pretty roster at this time a

0:01:01.440 --> 0:01:04.720
<v Speaker 1>year ago, but still very much needed a right tackle

0:01:04.760 --> 0:01:07.640
<v Speaker 1>and everybody knew that. Uh so this one they could

0:01:07.680 --> 0:01:09.720
<v Speaker 1>really go in any direction they wanted. That being said,

0:01:10.240 --> 0:01:12.679
<v Speaker 1>I don't think you ever truly get away from needs

0:01:12.800 --> 0:01:15.440
<v Speaker 1>in a draft. I'm not sure if the Buccaneers did,

0:01:15.600 --> 0:01:18.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, fouled needs or just managed to hit them

0:01:18.080 --> 0:01:20.120
<v Speaker 1>while picking best player available. But if you look at

0:01:20.160 --> 0:01:22.720
<v Speaker 1>some of the guys, like take the two inside linebackers

0:01:22.760 --> 0:01:25.120
<v Speaker 1>that we took on the third day, kJ Britt and

0:01:25.160 --> 0:01:28.880
<v Speaker 1>Grant Stewart, there was very little depth behind Lavante David

0:01:28.920 --> 0:01:30.800
<v Speaker 1>and Devin White had Kevin Minter and that was it.

0:01:30.880 --> 0:01:32.640
<v Speaker 1>And usually I have about five of those guys and

0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:34.920
<v Speaker 1>they help you a lot on special teams. And I

0:01:34.920 --> 0:01:37.360
<v Speaker 1>think these guys will do that right away. Even Joe

0:01:37.400 --> 0:01:39.280
<v Speaker 1>try On, I mean, that's our first round pitcher. That

0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:42.120
<v Speaker 1>was probably the best player available. Thing, but they're there.

0:01:42.160 --> 0:01:45.959
<v Speaker 1>We needed more depth rotationally and uh Hainze, they want

0:01:45.959 --> 0:01:48.960
<v Speaker 1>to develop a guy that can fill in either inside

0:01:49.040 --> 0:01:51.760
<v Speaker 1>or outside. I even think that they wanted to get

0:01:51.960 --> 0:01:55.520
<v Speaker 1>a punt return option, which they did with the wide receiver.

0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:58.639
<v Speaker 1>So UM, I don't know. I think whether by design

0:01:58.680 --> 0:02:01.919
<v Speaker 1>or not, we actually did hit some say middling needs

0:02:01.920 --> 0:02:05.920
<v Speaker 1>on the depth chart. Okay Todd had asked about, um,

0:02:05.960 --> 0:02:08.720
<v Speaker 1>what you thought their motivation was, specifically about Kyle Trask

0:02:08.800 --> 0:02:11.200
<v Speaker 1>in terms of who you know, which quarterback they ended

0:02:11.240 --> 0:02:13.639
<v Speaker 1>up drafting when they drafted a quarterback, just what we

0:02:13.760 --> 0:02:16.400
<v Speaker 1>feel like his role could be moving forward with this

0:02:16.520 --> 0:02:20.040
<v Speaker 1>team and what the Bucks thought of him. Well, I

0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:23.679
<v Speaker 1>think the Bucks thought very highly of him, because, as expected,

0:02:23.720 --> 0:02:27.440
<v Speaker 1>they didn't try to get in on the first first

0:02:27.880 --> 0:02:29.840
<v Speaker 1>around quarterbacks, and they really would have had to make

0:02:29.880 --> 0:02:32.560
<v Speaker 1>a very dramatic trade to even do that. So I

0:02:32.600 --> 0:02:34.639
<v Speaker 1>don't think the Bucks were ever targeting the first back,

0:02:34.720 --> 0:02:37.480
<v Speaker 1>and most quarterbacks that could taken, especially pretty high in

0:02:37.480 --> 0:02:40.160
<v Speaker 1>the first round, they're expected to play pretty dang soon.

0:02:40.400 --> 0:02:42.120
<v Speaker 1>And I don't think the Buccaneers were looking for a

0:02:42.200 --> 0:02:44.880
<v Speaker 1>quarterback you'd want to put on the field because they're

0:02:44.880 --> 0:02:47.120
<v Speaker 1>committed to Tom Brady for at least the next two seasons.

0:02:47.360 --> 0:02:50.440
<v Speaker 1>But I'm dave two. There were three quarterbacks that were

0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:52.800
<v Speaker 1>widely considered guys would probably come off the board in

0:02:52.840 --> 0:02:55.440
<v Speaker 1>the second third round. In addition to Kyle Trask. It

0:02:55.560 --> 0:02:58.280
<v Speaker 1>was Amand from Texas, A and M and Davis Mills

0:02:58.280 --> 0:03:00.680
<v Speaker 1>from Stanford. The Buccaneers took the first one of those

0:03:00.680 --> 0:03:02.799
<v Speaker 1>three and then the other two went very soon, like

0:03:02.840 --> 0:03:04.799
<v Speaker 1>the next couple of picks after that. So I think

0:03:05.000 --> 0:03:06.720
<v Speaker 1>they got the one they want. You know, if they

0:03:06.720 --> 0:03:08.840
<v Speaker 1>were the third one in this run, then you wouldn't

0:03:08.880 --> 0:03:11.320
<v Speaker 1>know did they really want Davis Mills? But they ended

0:03:11.400 --> 0:03:13.720
<v Speaker 1>up with Kyle Trask, so they got the guy they wanted.

0:03:14.120 --> 0:03:16.200
<v Speaker 1>The deal with Kyle is that he had he had

0:03:16.200 --> 0:03:18.040
<v Speaker 1>to wait a long time to get to play football.

0:03:18.080 --> 0:03:20.480
<v Speaker 1>He was a backup at his high school to Derrek

0:03:20.560 --> 0:03:22.880
<v Speaker 1>king Um and he and then he had a long

0:03:22.919 --> 0:03:24.480
<v Speaker 1>time in Florida to get his shot, and then he did.

0:03:24.480 --> 0:03:26.800
<v Speaker 1>He was fantastic. But you still don't have a huge

0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:28.440
<v Speaker 1>idea of evidence. But that was the case with a

0:03:28.440 --> 0:03:30.800
<v Speaker 1>lot of quarterbacks this year. So I think it's a

0:03:30.840 --> 0:03:32.919
<v Speaker 1>guy that they really see a lot. They like a

0:03:32.919 --> 0:03:34.800
<v Speaker 1>lot of his traits. They like him from the neck up,

0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:37.360
<v Speaker 1>as they said before the draft, and uh, but they

0:03:37.400 --> 0:03:39.560
<v Speaker 1>have plenty of time to see if they can develop

0:03:39.760 --> 0:03:43.080
<v Speaker 1>him into Tom Brady's successor. Okay, And then related to that,

0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:45.440
<v Speaker 1>Richard had asked, is there room for Blaine Gabbert to

0:03:45.480 --> 0:03:48.160
<v Speaker 1>come back? Now? With all this that we know we have?

0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:50.160
<v Speaker 1>You know Tom Brady and Ryan Griffin and now you've

0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:53.800
<v Speaker 1>drafted Kyle Trash. Do you see Blaine Gabert coming back. Yeah?

0:03:53.840 --> 0:03:55.600
<v Speaker 1>I would have guessed that anyway, but that was pretty

0:03:55.640 --> 0:03:58.600
<v Speaker 1>much directly addressed by Cameron. For the James, I think

0:03:58.600 --> 0:04:01.400
<v Speaker 1>it was Bruce um He's who said he they do

0:04:01.520 --> 0:04:03.640
<v Speaker 1>want to bring Blame Gabbert back if they can make

0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:06.600
<v Speaker 1>that happen. So you know that the team brain trust

0:04:06.640 --> 0:04:08.120
<v Speaker 1>has already said that, so I don't have to guess

0:04:08.120 --> 0:04:10.840
<v Speaker 1>at this one. And yeah, you usually take four quarterbacks

0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:14.560
<v Speaker 1>to training camp, so if Blame Gabrett were to return,

0:04:14.920 --> 0:04:16.599
<v Speaker 1>I think what you'd end up with is a situation

0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:19.040
<v Speaker 1>where obviously you're keeping Tom Brady and you almost certainly

0:04:19.040 --> 0:04:21.840
<v Speaker 1>are keeping Kyle Trask, so then the other to him

0:04:21.839 --> 0:04:23.960
<v Speaker 1>and Ryan Griffin. Blame and Ryan Griffin are sort of

0:04:23.960 --> 0:04:26.280
<v Speaker 1>battling to see who would be the veteran backup to

0:04:26.279 --> 0:04:28.440
<v Speaker 1>Tom and probably the number two guy during the season.

0:04:29.080 --> 0:04:32.040
<v Speaker 1>That's interesting. Um Asher had asked, do you think that

0:04:32.120 --> 0:04:34.560
<v Speaker 1>Ryan suck Up has the kicking position secured or do

0:04:34.600 --> 0:04:36.640
<v Speaker 1>you think there will still be some competition for him

0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:42.560
<v Speaker 1>coming this year. I don't think they're gonna I don't

0:04:42.600 --> 0:04:44.840
<v Speaker 1>think they're gonna try to bring in competition for him.

0:04:45.080 --> 0:04:48.760
<v Speaker 1>I could see them bringing in a leg um camp leg,

0:04:48.839 --> 0:04:51.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, I guess it would strictly be competition, but

0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:53.680
<v Speaker 1>probably that guy is not expected to beat him out.

0:04:53.920 --> 0:04:56.520
<v Speaker 1>How to distribute the kicking a little bit more. But

0:04:56.800 --> 0:04:59.840
<v Speaker 1>I know from inside the building that bringing rants like

0:04:59.920 --> 0:05:03.359
<v Speaker 1>a pack was a surprisingly high priority for this team.

0:05:03.400 --> 0:05:05.400
<v Speaker 1>So um, I think he's got it pretty much secured.

0:05:06.160 --> 0:05:08.760
<v Speaker 1>And how many of these draft picks do you see

0:05:08.839 --> 0:05:11.880
<v Speaker 1>having the chance to, you know, earn a helmet on

0:05:12.000 --> 0:05:14.440
<v Speaker 1>game day, you know, actually not only make the roster,

0:05:14.600 --> 0:05:17.720
<v Speaker 1>but but have a chance to be contributing on Sundays. Yeah,

0:05:17.760 --> 0:05:19.840
<v Speaker 1>it's a little surprising to say this, but I think

0:05:19.920 --> 0:05:24.200
<v Speaker 1>all se of them could make the fifty three man roster. Um.

0:05:24.240 --> 0:05:26.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, obviously the day three guys once they're the

0:05:26.640 --> 0:05:30.679
<v Speaker 1>biggest question marks. But I'll have potentially packed on special teams,

0:05:30.680 --> 0:05:33.520
<v Speaker 1>and we're drafted with that in mind. So even if

0:05:33.560 --> 0:05:35.560
<v Speaker 1>you don't see anything in training kept that makes you

0:05:35.560 --> 0:05:37.560
<v Speaker 1>think they're going to start right away, if they are

0:05:37.880 --> 0:05:39.680
<v Speaker 1>shining on special teams, they got a shot, and that

0:05:39.720 --> 0:05:43.160
<v Speaker 1>also gives them a shot to be active on game days.

0:05:43.200 --> 0:05:46.120
<v Speaker 1>So I don't think it's likely that Kyle Trask would

0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:48.600
<v Speaker 1>be So maybe that's minus one there. And I think

0:05:48.720 --> 0:05:52.119
<v Speaker 1>Robert Hainzi early in his career, he's probably he could

0:05:52.120 --> 0:05:55.000
<v Speaker 1>be active because now you usually keep up eight offensive

0:05:55.000 --> 0:05:57.160
<v Speaker 1>linemen as opposed to when you usually kept up seven before,

0:05:57.200 --> 0:05:58.720
<v Speaker 1>because that allows you to keep up four or eight

0:05:58.720 --> 0:06:01.320
<v Speaker 1>guys instead of forty seven on game day. Because otherwise,

0:06:02.240 --> 0:06:04.760
<v Speaker 1>with the starting five intact and Aaron Stinney and j

0:06:05.200 --> 0:06:08.520
<v Speaker 1>would probably be your your top reserves inside and outside,

0:06:08.800 --> 0:06:11.479
<v Speaker 1>that doesn't really leave a spot. Robert Hainzy seemingly would

0:06:11.480 --> 0:06:12.760
<v Speaker 1>have to beat one of those two guys out, but

0:06:12.760 --> 0:06:14.960
<v Speaker 1>maybe he's active on game days, so you could have

0:06:15.160 --> 0:06:18.040
<v Speaker 1>up to six of them, especially if Jalen Darden wins

0:06:18.040 --> 0:06:21.360
<v Speaker 1>the punt return job. And then uh Mitch had asked

0:06:21.440 --> 0:06:28.200
<v Speaker 1>which draft pick do you see having the most upside? Well,

0:06:28.240 --> 0:06:31.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'll do two answers here, because the obvious

0:06:31.360 --> 0:06:34.840
<v Speaker 1>one is the first round pick, but that's probably too

0:06:34.880 --> 0:06:37.360
<v Speaker 1>simple of an answer. He's probably looking for something else.

0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:40.000
<v Speaker 1>But um, Joe try and has I think a lot

0:06:40.240 --> 0:06:43.680
<v Speaker 1>to develop in terms of his pass rush moves with UM,

0:06:43.720 --> 0:06:46.719
<v Speaker 1>you know, working with JPP and and UH and Shack

0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:49.920
<v Speaker 1>Barrett and Casey Rodgers and Coach Low and everybody. UM,

0:06:50.200 --> 0:06:53.279
<v Speaker 1>I think he's got a lot. You know, he's he

0:06:53.520 --> 0:06:56.320
<v Speaker 1>made a big impact in college largely with his power moves.

0:06:56.560 --> 0:06:59.120
<v Speaker 1>So if he could develop a bigger tools toolkit of

0:06:59.200 --> 0:07:01.039
<v Speaker 1>pass rush moves, I think he has a capability to

0:07:01.040 --> 0:07:02.960
<v Speaker 1>do so, then you could get a lot more out

0:07:03.000 --> 0:07:05.000
<v Speaker 1>of him. But UM, to give a more comment, to

0:07:05.000 --> 0:07:08.920
<v Speaker 1>give a less obvious answer, I might go with Jalen Darden. UM,

0:07:08.960 --> 0:07:13.560
<v Speaker 1>just because it seems strange to pick a guy at

0:07:13.560 --> 0:07:15.680
<v Speaker 1>a receiver at the receiver position when we have so

0:07:15.760 --> 0:07:17.640
<v Speaker 1>many of them already were loaded there and it's hard

0:07:17.680 --> 0:07:20.600
<v Speaker 1>to find targets. But as John spide Tek explained, Jalen

0:07:20.680 --> 0:07:23.760
<v Speaker 1>Darden is a different sort of receiver than we have

0:07:23.920 --> 0:07:26.200
<v Speaker 1>right now. You know, you you've got Scotty Miller, but

0:07:26.280 --> 0:07:28.280
<v Speaker 1>he's more of a straight line, fast guy get down

0:07:28.280 --> 0:07:31.320
<v Speaker 1>the field, whereas Jalen Darden really is fantastic. This is

0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:33.840
<v Speaker 1>what John spider Tech loves by the most at getting

0:07:33.840 --> 0:07:35.760
<v Speaker 1>the ball and hand and then making guys. Miss he

0:07:35.800 --> 0:07:38.120
<v Speaker 1>told me right after the draft we drafted him that

0:07:38.160 --> 0:07:40.120
<v Speaker 1>he could catch the ball near the sideline, have three

0:07:40.160 --> 0:07:42.480
<v Speaker 1>defenders around him and somehow get away from And we

0:07:42.520 --> 0:07:45.560
<v Speaker 1>don't have a guy exactly like that right now. And um,

0:07:45.600 --> 0:07:47.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, he could really develop into something special down

0:07:47.920 --> 0:07:49.800
<v Speaker 1>the road. I think I like that. Yeah, he's gonna

0:07:49.800 --> 0:07:51.960
<v Speaker 1>be fun to watch. Um all right. Our next question

0:07:52.000 --> 0:07:53.960
<v Speaker 1>was what type of rotation do you think the running

0:07:53.960 --> 0:07:58.600
<v Speaker 1>backs will have with the addition of Giovanni Bernard. Yeah,

0:07:58.680 --> 0:08:00.400
<v Speaker 1>that's a it's a little early to know the answer

0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:02.000
<v Speaker 1>to that one. I don't mean that as a cop out,

0:08:02.040 --> 0:08:04.920
<v Speaker 1>but you know, there's a lot of questions there because

0:08:05.320 --> 0:08:07.440
<v Speaker 1>it was pretty clear for the majority of the season,

0:08:07.600 --> 0:08:10.520
<v Speaker 1>for instance, that Ronald Jones was your number one back,

0:08:10.880 --> 0:08:13.280
<v Speaker 1>and I think he got better results for most of

0:08:13.280 --> 0:08:15.480
<v Speaker 1>the year than Leonard Fournette. But then after Leonard Fournette

0:08:15.600 --> 0:08:17.520
<v Speaker 1>really came on at the end and in the playoffs,

0:08:18.440 --> 0:08:21.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm even wondering how the distribution between those two. And

0:08:21.680 --> 0:08:24.640
<v Speaker 1>then you know, after those two, there weren't a lot

0:08:24.680 --> 0:08:27.040
<v Speaker 1>of snaps left for anybody else. I mean, Keishan Vinom

0:08:28.040 --> 0:08:31.600
<v Speaker 1>every now and then got opportunities and Basically, Lashawn McCoy

0:08:31.680 --> 0:08:33.600
<v Speaker 1>was hardly used after the first three or four weeks,

0:08:33.960 --> 0:08:37.079
<v Speaker 1>so they're if they're gonna get to Giovanni Bernard and

0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:40.200
<v Speaker 1>particularly his pass catching, that's gonna have to be distributed

0:08:40.200 --> 0:08:41.520
<v Speaker 1>a little bit different. And I don't think we know

0:08:41.559 --> 0:08:43.120
<v Speaker 1>the answer to that yet. I'd be surprised if the

0:08:43.160 --> 0:08:45.760
<v Speaker 1>coaches know the answer to that yet. Okay, well, that's

0:08:45.760 --> 0:08:46.880
<v Speaker 1>going to do it for us on this edition of

0:08:46.880 --> 0:08:49.319
<v Speaker 1>Buccaneers Inside Our Live presented by Miller Lyte. Thanks for

0:08:49.360 --> 0:08:52.240
<v Speaker 1>all those amazing questions as always, and we'll be back

0:08:52.280 --> 0:08:55.320
<v Speaker 1>here next Wednesday morning again at ten am. So be

0:08:55.320 --> 0:08:57.600
<v Speaker 1>thinking of all those other draft questions we weren't able

0:08:57.640 --> 0:08:59.559
<v Speaker 1>to get to this morning, and we'll see you then.

0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:04.439
<v Speaker 1>Two people are the thought f
