Summer is here, and it is everyone’s favorite time of the year, scouting time. Every year, we do Summer Scouting to preview college football for Bucs fans, but also give them an idea of names to follow and watch in the fall as needs pop up for Tampa Bay. 

Are we going to write about quarterbacks? You know it, but why? Because other NFL teams will draft them, just as they will draft every other position. It all matters whether these players end up on the Bucs, the Bears, or the Steelers. We write these so Bucs fans can be the most informed fans. 

So if you are still with us, enjoy our latest Summer Scouting report as we prepare you for the Fall.

Player Summary

Kevin Concepcion is one of the more dynamic playmaking wide receivers in college football in 2025. He has some issues to address in his game, namely his hands and lack of ball control, which are major concerns, but the playmaking outshines those moments. I really enjoy watching him run routes and use his body control to work defenders with and without the ball in his hands. Concepcion really thrives using his speed to pick up extra yards and take advantage of every touch he gets, as NC State tended to manufacture touches for him often. Going to Texas A&M, it will be interesting to see how they use him as he has the making of a dynamic playmaker, but their offense may make him a better pro in the end than a college player.
