For all the Bucs fans who were clamoring for the team to draft a corner for the Bucs defensive coaches to ruin, might as well get a guy who has a rap sheet..
The Bucs selected M.J, Stewart of North Carolina. He is also projected as a safety. Joe hope the Bucs have more success than the last corner they drafted from the state of North Carolina.
