Fanbases often express frustration with early draft grades before an incoming class takes a snap. Well, five years later, we've had more than enough time to.
Copied!
The first big rush of free agency is behind us and we re now full-on into draft season. It s the first day of April, which is the month the birds migrate back north, the Titanic sunk and the NFL puts on the best offseason show of any sport. This year, the NFL Draft will be conducted from Thursday, April 29 through Saturday, May 1.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, winners of Super Bowl LV and owners of the last pick of the first round, are in the uncommon position of truly getting to follow the proverbial best player available strategy. They are also on a bit of a roll, draft wise, with the last four classes having produced around 10 starters on the Super Bowl LV team. That includes their first two picks from last year s draft, first-round tackle Tristan Wirfs and second-round safety Antoine Winfield, Jr.
