We have more players for you to watch as you get to become the smartest fan base in the NFL, getting to know which college football players will be wearing pewter next year.
The eighth weekend of college football is here, and several matchups have our attention. Right now, we are projecting the Bucs‘ draft needs to be linebacker, edge rusher, tight end, defensive line, and interior offensive line.
Linebacker is an obvious need as Lavonte David is playing in what is expected to be his final season with the Bucs. The team needs a long-term solution at the position, and currently, they do not have one on the roster. Edge rusher is another position where they have some band-aids on the roster in Haason Reddick, but they need some younger pieces at the position. As for tight end, defensive line, and interior offensive line, they have some pieces at those positions, but some depth is needed, or they have players facing critical years.
This is a great roster the Bucs have built, but Jason Licht has shown the NFL Draft is important to him in how he maintains it. With that in mind, here is our first watchlist of the college football season.
Editor’s Note: College football does not have the best injury report system; some do not even report them until gameday. If a player is listed to watch and does not play, we apologize.
