taylor made Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Quote That’s also part of the reason why the Bucs preferred Graham Barton over Jackson Powers-Johnson in the first round – locker room fit. If Barton was off the board at No. 26 the Bucs were poised to take Illinois defensive tackle Johnny Newton instead of Powers-Johnson – despite the interior offensive line being a more pressing need. Tampa Bay was determined to draft the best player available in the first round. Thought that was interesting. Tampa Bay could have taken Johnny at #26. https://www.pewterreport.com/srs-post-draft-bucs-scoop-and-analysis/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locker room fit doesn’t speak to JPJ being a good teammate & maybe that’s why he fell in the draft and why we passed on him as well, but I still maintain that we had greatly upgraded our interior OL in FA with the additions of Allegretti, Biadasz & Deiter so they didn’t need to take a C or G high in the draft.

RSkinGM Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 This foot injury The whole fiasco sounds so much like the old regime ! I mean when he was drafted he said he was all healed up and ready to go. Did he scam the draft gurus ? Next he's at the rookie camp in a walking boot. Are we that stupid we couldn't uncover this new injury predraft? Who knew and WHEN did they know it. Just like the old regime- No one will say. Quinn says it was an "unfortunate act " . The whole things smells to me. I expect honest complete answers from this group. I'm very disappointed ! 😡 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
