Bucs GM's job was under pressure but this draft showed why he is genius when it comes to off season...
1st round 8th pick - Ralph Bye, MLB – New Mexico He improved +15/+2 overall 68/93 Thus Bucs found their future leader of Bucs new gen defense.
1st round 10th pick – James Demers, QB – USC He improved +8/+1 overall 57/91… He was too risky pick at 100 vol but turned out to be great pick for Bucs.
1st round 19th pick – James Moore, QB – Miami -> He improved +13/+0 overall 61/91….He did not only boomed to be best QB in draft but also best player in draft. I still don’t know how he fall to 19th but no complain….we have Payton and Brady in same draft… both are Bucs…
2nd round 12th pick – D.Laufleur, LG – Boston College -> He improved + 10/+1 overall 54/84…. He is going to provide good depth on Left side of line but his immediate value will be as the St. Rusher
3rd round 27th pick – James Ratcliff, FB – Baylor -> He improved + 12/+5 overall 47/79…. He is going to be bull dozer opening lanes for Bucs running game
5th round 18th pick – John Mcdonald, DL/LB – FAU -> He was ok in camp +9/-4 overall 43/64…. He is undersized prospect from small school he did improved but overall regressed on potential…. He will need great preseason to make team…
6th round 12th pick – T. Lloyd, DL – Notre Dame -> He improved +4/+0… he is decent DL prospect with good pro level experience…he will start his career as backup to climb the ladder…..good player
6th round 16th pick – J.Graham, QB - AZ State -> He had decent camp with +7/-1… he settled a bit but overall had good camp…will start life as backup with potential to grow
7th round 15th pick – L.Schoolcraft, WR- Michigan -> He came to camp as koolest named rookie, he let that get to his head and lost focus…..overall he did improve +7 /- 7 so he is borderline bust… he will need good camp and lots of luck to make it to final roster.
They were picked off the waiver but since they are rookies listing them here
Harry Brown, RB – Tennessee -> He did improved in camp +8/+4… he is bit slow on initial burst to be starting RB but he is decent short yard back…. He will stick to team based on his sp team contribution.
S. Kiser, RB – Middle TN St -> He had great camp and he improved by +10/+11, but he is bit slow on initial burst but he can be good short yard RB,FB or TE with good special team value.
