Texas CB Jahdae Barron.
A guy who — from what Joe has seen and read — seems to have a lot of thoughtful insight, suggested a team looking for a corner in the first round of the draft tonight would be wise to go with this guy. [read more]
Bucs GM Jason Licht has behind-the-scenes considerations.
Fans and Joe have blubbered about the Bucs’ draft for weeks. But nobody is playing with a remotely full deck.
So much is known only to those inside the walls of One Buc Palace. There’s too much mystery to make a bet-your-life-on-it prediction in tonight’s first round. [read more]
“Bruce, we set the board last week and we’re sticking to it. I’ve just been playing Red Dead Redemption in my office.”
No, this post has nothing to do with former Bucs rock star general manager Mark Dominik. [read more]
“Jason, if you really are targeting Matthew Golden, you’re playing chess and everyone else is playing checkers.”
A man forever in Bucs lore is very much a low key savvy NFL talent evaluator. [read more]
Intrigue.
Now this throwaway line in a mock draft certainly caught Joe’s attention. [read more]
Ole Miss DT Walter Nolen.

(This is a repost of a published article Joe runs as an annual tradition for the morning of the first night of the NFL draft.)
Joe’s going to go slightly personal here, a rare, albeit tiny window into Joe’s background on this holiest of high football holidays. [read more]
NFL Network draft analyst Daniel Jeremiah.
It’s very interesting to Joe that respected insiders who Joe knows talk to the right people at One Buc Palace have built a case for the Bucs picking a wide receiver at No. 19 within 36 hours of the draft commencing in Green Bay. [read more]
Bucs GM Jason Licht
Do the Bucs want to blow the minds of their fan base and become a greater Super Bowl contender?
Or, well, Jamel Dean. [read more]
This love caught Joe’s ear because it comes from a guy who trends a little curmudgeonly. [read more]
Ohio State receiver Emeka Egbuka.
Look, while Joe could see the Bucs adding a defensive player at any position, the Bucs have been not so secretive in suggesting if a playmaker receiver is there at No. 19, the Bucs won’t hesitate to pull the trigger. [read more]
One X-factor in this week’s Bucs draft is how highly the team evaluates the play of defensive end/defensive tackle Logan Hall.
Hall plays half the defensive snaps and starts most games, including against Washington in the playoffs three months ago. [read more]
Analyst believes Bucs’ pick is in!

A man with a key card to One Buc Palace, a man who has said publicly that he’s seen the Bucs’ draft big board (he didn’t specify 2025), a man who has the trust and friendship of Buccaneers Ring of Honor general manager Jason Licht, has weighed in on Tampa Bay’s draft. [read more]
Quicker get-off = sacks.
The best thing to happen to Bucs edge rusher YaYa Diaby is the signing of fellow edge rusher Haason Reddick. Less pressure on YaYa to produce. [read more]
