COMMENT all draft long below.
So the Bucs got their man last night in the Miami Mauler, defensive lineman Rueben Bain. And just like some 30 years ago when another Hurricane legend unexpectedly dropped into the Bucs’ lap, so too did Bain, for different reasons, obviously.

No wonder Licht wanted to trade back.
As always, Joe kindly requests, please do behave.
