The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are currently slated to pick 32nd in the opening round of the 2021 NFL Draft, a fact that will serve as my latest mechanism to shoehorn into every article the
other fact that the Buccaneers are the reigning NFL champions. By beating Kansas City, 31-9, in Super Bowl LV, Tampa Bay locked themselves into that 32nd and final spot in the round. You know, because the champions always pick last.
The Buccaneers have made the 32nd-overall pick in a draft before, but it wasn t a first-rounder and it didn t produce a very favorable outcome. That was way back in 1982, when the team traded its 1983 first-round pick to the Bears for their 82 second-rounder in order to grab Booker Reese, a raw defensive end project out of Bethune-Cookman. Reese was a bust and the Bucs lack of a first-round pick in 1983 compounded their quarterback problems in that era.
