Bucs Better Grab a Edge Rusher Early




Bucs Gm Jason Licht knows he needs to improve the pass rush on defense as it has been the team's problem for quite some time. However, the edge rushers in this draft class is not very deep in contrast to the deep class of interior defensive lineman. Matt Miller of bleacherreport tweeted yesterday that if your team needs a edge rusher in this draft, better get one early or don't take one at all.
The good news for the Bucs is that they can upgrade the pass rush with a edge rusher or a interior lineman, and I expect the Bucs to draft both next week. Unless Bosa is there at 9, which is a possibility now, look for the Bucs to try to trade down first, if they cant then they will go with the best defensive lineman available. Shaq Lawson, Sheldon Rankins, Robert Nkemdiche, Noah Spence all make sense for the Bucs, and one of those four should be available at 9 or in trade down scenario. If the Bucs don't take a defensive lineman in the first two rounds, I would be shocked as probably the rest of Bucs nation.
