Karen Warren/Houston Chronicle via Getty Images Tampa Bay puts their money into the slots. The Buccaneers ended their second day of picks with players that can play specific roles on each side of the ball. With their first pick in Round 3, the Bucs selected defensive back Tykee Smith from Georgia 89th overall. Smith was a true star in his slot cornerback position for the Bulldogs playing nearly all his snaps in the slot while at college. Check out this stat bit from SB Nation’s Jon Ledyard on Smith’s snap distribution. For those wondering, here are new #Bucs DB Tykee Smith's snap distributions at Georgia:Slot CB: 1,356Deep Safety: 52Box/Edge: 557Outside CB: 61He's a slot CB who would be a projection anywhere else.— Jon Ledyard (@LedyardNFLDraft) April 27, 2024 Three picks later, with their second pick in Round 3, Tampa Bay went offense and selected Washington wide receiver Jalen McMillan. He, too, excelled in his role in the slot — but on the offensive side of the ball of course. Bucs Nation’s Mike Kiwak mocked McMillan to the Buccaneers in his final mock draft this week. Pinning him to pick No. 89 and three slots ahead of where the Bucs actually drafted him, Mike had this to say about Tampa Bay’s new slot receiver. If he wasn’t behind two other top 50 studs in Rome Odunze and Ja’Lynn Polk, people would be more privy to McMillan’s talent. He’d be a No. 1 on other Power 5 programs, as McMillan is a long-limbed athlete who’s reliably handed, possesses good size, and can shake defenders with clean strides and footwork.

Photo by Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images The Bucs beef up the edge of the defensive line.. Tampa Bay got a big, speedy guy off the edge in Round 2 of the NFL Draft. With the 57th pick, the Bucs selected EDGE rusher Chris Braswell. Talking of Braswell on the NFL Network broadcast, the crew talked about how Braswell and first round pick Dallas Turner would race during practices. The GPS chip would track Braswell at just under 22 mph. Not bad for a guy measuring 6’3” 251 lbs. Here is what NFL Draft Analyst Lance Zierlein had to say of the Bucs new pass rusher. Edge defender with good size and length but limited playing time over his four years at Alabama. Braswell chose to stick it out at Alabama rather than transferring and was rewarded with a productive final campaign. He doesn’t play with great technique or anchor as an edge-setter and is average in taking on in-line tight ends at the point of attack. As a pass rusher, he gets off the ball with good burst and uses a variety of moves, speeds and angles to create opportunities but needs to add counters to his approach. Braswell might have a ceiling as a good 3-4 backup or average designated pass rusher with core special teams value.

Photo by Cliff Welch/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images The fan base likes what they saw Thursday night. Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NFL. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Tampa Bay Buccaneers fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate. The first round of the NFL Draft is in the books. And as each selection passed with some of the draft’s top talents, some felt Tampa Bay would miss out on a big target. But they didn’t. The Buccaneers drafted one of the best offensive lineman in the draft in Graham Barton. We asked the Buccaneers fan base to grade the selection of Barton following the pick. The fans are very high on the selection. It’s fair to say that some fans will never be happy. Perhaps those fans were hoping for an elite pass rusher. Who knows. But no one should be down on this selection. Tampa Bay will look for more success Friday during the second night of the NFL draft. Check out DraftKings Sportsbook, the official sportsbook partner of SB Nation.
