More Fuel For Bucs Taking A Wide Receiver?

April 24th, 2025

GM Jason Licht.

So NFL insider Peter Schrager just dropped an interesting nugget on The Pat McAfee Show draft show after the Raiders picked Ashton Jeanty with the No. 6 overall pick.

Schrager noted how he had a long chat with Raiders GM John Spytek last week, one in which they shared their “notebooks.”

Why does Joe care? Two reasons. Because Spytek was Bucs GM Jason Licht’s right-hand man until late-January, and Schrager’s one and only mock draft published this week put the Bucs on wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan out of Arizona at No. 19 overall.

Why would Schrager make that call after talking to Spytek, who surely knows what players are getting Licht hot in the pants?

Of course, McMillan was just grabbed by the Panthers at No. 8 overall.

    He gone to Carolina

  2. BucEmUp Says:

    No way

  3. D-Rome Says:

    The pick by Carolina is fascinating. Panthers know they have to score points if they have hope against the Bucs.

  4. BayouBullet Says:

    That was short lived… Hahaha

  5. BayouBullet Says:

    Carolina just got much better

  6. BridleOaksBuc Says:

    Cannales wants another ME13…Sorry Dave, Tet ain’t Mike!

  7. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    No chance McMillan is even close to Evans.

  8. Cybetsecurity_intern Says:

    How did Carolina become so much better?

  9. FilthyAnimal Says:

    I’m curious how much they’re into Golden. I’m not that excited abut that guy. Could Tyler Warren fall to 19?

  10. buc4evr Says:

    Grant went to the fins. ugh. was hoping he would be around for the Bucs.

  11. Bucsfan1988 Says:

    McMillan’s route running is pedestrian….

    Just a big body….

    Drake London is even better than him…

    Nowhere close to ME13

  12. TheBigSombreo Says:

    LBs are going… might need to change targets for round 1

    I had a sneaking suspicion that this was a real possibility. Not anymore, though.

    Good call Joe! Boom WR

  19. Chefjeffrey Says:

    Scratch my head on the pick, WR? However I dont agree with Carolina got better, but more concern with Atlanta. Falcons got two gunning for Baker stacked with a potent O. We will see.

  20. theKINGpeon Says:

    I’d say that was pretty spot on. I personally like the pick. It just feels like a fit. What they can do gets all screwed up when Mike and or Chris get banged up. This feels like a WR that keeps things flowing in that situation. And he’s apparently a good run blocker which also fits. Not one of the picks anyone had guessed but I’m excited to see him in the mix. They’ll hit the D some tomorrow night without question.
