First off I would like to thank @Alan for another great effort in keeping this mock Draft under control for seven rounds, outstanding!


Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2017 NFL Draft:

1st round (14) - Leonard Fournette (RB) LSU
IMO the steal of this Draft at 14! Top 5 talent! He has a terrifying combination of size 6'1" 228-240 lbs, speed 4.5 40, and power. Has been compared to AP and Bo



2nd round (50) - Zay Jones (WR) East Carolina
Versatile receiver who lined up all over the field, catches the ball effortlessly with his hands and has great route running ability. Comes from an accomplished football family, his father Robert Jones has three SB rings with the Cowboys and he even played for the Rams one season and led the team in tackles.



3rd round (84) - traded up to 14 from 19 to Draft Fournette. No way he's there at 19, being that he was still on the board at 14 felt the need to get him.


4th round (125) - Eddie Jackson (S) Alabama
If he can bounce back from the fractured leg he will be solid ballhawking safety. Would have been late first early second rounder if not for the injury.



5th round (162) - Zach Banner (OG) USC
If he keeps his weight under control he has the size 6'9" to step in and play OG right now with the potential to bounce outside and play OT.



6th round (204) - Matt Milano (LB) Boston College
Gap-filler that plays the run well even being undersized. Hybrid type LB that's also aggressive in the pass-rush with 11 tackles for loss, 6.5 sacks, and 1 interception his senior year.



7th round (237) - Hunter Dimick (DE) Utah
What he lacks in physicality he makes up for in effort. Plays hard and finished 3rd in the country for sacks (14.5), also was a first-team All-PAC-12 selection in his senior year.


It was a lot of fun doing this again this year. Everyone involved did a super job and it will be fun to see if anyone's picks actually happen when the live bullets start flying!

T-REX liking the way the mock draft went:
Stuff.
Thank you for the kind words but it was a team effort. What I did was nothing compared to the collective efforts of all our GMs. Their (and your) professionalism, for want of a better word, was responsible for making this more than just a way to pass the time. I don't think any of the real GMs would be unhappy with the way this draft went for their teams. Great job by all of you!
