Brockers in the first, Zach Brown or Chris Rainey in the 2nd?

Dammit, we still need a CB.

But, I think Rainey is the "scatback" Rivera is looking for.

Chris Rainey might be around well after the 2nd round. I don't think Rivera would be willing to use a pick on a RB in the 2nd round, especially after he said that the defense has needs all over the place.

If Rainey, James, or one of those type players are there in the 4th round, I could definitely see us taking them, though.

Good call. I'm just guessing he won't be there in the 3rd though, especially if he runs in the 4.3s.

And even with Brockers in the 1st, the defense still needs quite a bit of help.

I just dont think Brockers will fall to us. I can see Clayborn falling to us before Brockers will. Lucky for us most teams above us are going offense. I could see Tampa taking Clayborn but just as much as taking Brockers.

Stephen Hill. Big time sleeper. May sneak into first round after today and leap frog Jeffery (at least until Jeffery runs).

Played at GT so not much tape on him but he has been by far the most impressive at the combine.

Legit 6'4 220ish and ran a 4.30 40, made a diving catch on a bad pass on the fade route, and then dominated the gauntlet and looked like he had glue on his hands.

No way Caliborne makes it past Tampa. Think about it. Ronde Barber is retiring in the next year or two, after him they don't have another CB, and they have gone DL four picks during the last two drafts, using high picks on them.

And, they realize they are in a pass happy division, with Drew Brees, Matt Ryan, and now the emergence of Cam Newton and our awesome offense.

Man, according to this.......

Chase Minnifield is 5' 10"! I've heard Chase is a decent cornerback, but I had no idea he would be this small a corner. (He was listed at 6' 0" on the college profile) I would have to pass on him as our second round pick.

Ronde is still waying his options and the new coach said he would like to have him back. They also said that they were pretty confident about Talibs legal situation and that he would be back next year and so was he. Still early, but thats what it looks like right now. I read it over on NFL.com, and it looks like there are getting Mario Manningham in FA so i dont expect them to take Blackmon in the first.

Sure, Barber will probably come back, but, he's old. They know he may not be back next season, so the replacement needs to be in place. Talib has been in more trouble than not, and who knows how long he can stay out of trouble, and I never thought they would take Blackmon. With Benn and Williams, the team already has two good, young WRs, only in their second year.

I would almost guarantee that, unless something mind-boggling happens, the Bucs draft Claiborne.

Anyone else want Stephen Hill in the 4th if possible?.. Doubt it but wow!

Mark this down. Stephen Hill will not be available after the second round and may have put himself into the late first round just by his combine alone today. His tape isn't that bad either, just very limited, but impressive considering the terrible QB throwing him the ball.

If you want this guy you will have to get him with our second round pick.

He was the best WR at the combine today. The only thing was he was a little off on some of his routes but that is easier to fix than being short or slow.

6'4 220 ran a 4.30 40 and made several great catches and killed the gauntlet.... :eek: :eek: :eek:

[Jesse]

I just did a little google search and saw him as the 6th best or so.

I think you nailed it. He looked awesome and had a massive frame. He's like a faster and bigger Mike Wallace. I don't think his film hurts, but helps with his YPC. All catches would be highlights alone with other receivers.

fug yeah bro, that would be amazing. 99% he won't be there. WRs with that combination of size and speed are at a premium. streeter is pretty similar too.

Jeffries won't go until the third round

[methodtoll]

I am afraid that Alshon Jeffery may be the second coming of Dywane Jarrett. Anyone get that vibe?
