Summer is here, and it is everyone\u2019s favorite time of the year, scouting time. Every year, we do Summer Scouting to preview college football for Bucs<\/a> fans, but also give them an idea of names to follow and watch in the fall as needs pop up for Tampa Bay.\u00a0<\/p>\n

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<\/a>, or the Steelers<\/a>. We write these so Bucs fans can be the most informed fans.\u00a0<\/p>\n

So if you are still with us, enjoy our latest Summer Scouting report as we prepare you for the Fall.<\/p>\n

Player Summary<\/p>\n

Francis Mauigoa will be this year\u2019s Will Campbell in the sense that his size will dictate the conversation. That being said, he is twice the athlete that Campbell was, in my opinion, and because of that, I see him as a tackle. At worst, he will be a Pro Bowl-level guard from day one for a team that lands him. I love his athletic ability, but he also plays with a physical edge that not many tackles play with anymore. He has strong hands, a good punch, and a good base, and that trio of qualities spells trouble for most anyone who lines up across from him. He will be a must-watch again this Fall in a fast and tough ACC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Summer is here, and it is everyone\u2019s favorite time of the year, scouting time.
