But imagine a 4-3 where instead of having a knifing 3 tech, our 3 tech was more powerful/big than quick/fast...
To kind of pull from TD a bit, imagine Allen or StevieT at NT with Vea at the 3...
THAT'S our future...
You could be right. Though I wouldn't simply declare that this is the plan in place because of the Vea pick. I think if we're in a position to draft a Sapp/McCoy/Aaron Donald/John Randle type like Ed Oliver, Christian Wilkins (a McCoy clone), etc, we will.
It's less being a Bucs fan and more being a football fan, but if you're running a 4-3, I think you need a guy who can provide an interior rush.

Beckwith will own that spot sooner or later.

...Cause they're both projected top 5 picks at this point. Especially Oliver, who most say will be the first defensive player off the board and could go as high as 2nd overall.
Agreed...
I'll throw my hat in the ring with:
Zach Allen DE Boston College
6'5" 285lbs
If he continues to improve, I think he'll end up being one of those later 1st/early 2nd DE picks...
And his size fits what we seem to be looking to do with our DL/DE group...
The days of us trotting out 245lb-255lb rushers, from the DE spot, are over...
Side note, ya better produce this year Spence...just sayin..

I've mentioned this elsewhere, but I really question his deep arm. He has to get a ton of torque to put the ball in the air deep. Usually when he does, there's more air then you'd like, and there's often a wobble. There are a lot of throws I've watched that most QBs would snap off with arm strength, but he has to load up like an outfielder trying to throw a runner out at home. His receivers are usually open enough that it doesn't matter at this level.
Best and most generous comp I see is Jeff Garcia. I don't think the post-season will do him any favors.

If you want to beef up the right side of the O-line, you have some real nice Tackles to choose from in the first. If you want to leave Smith on the left, then your top RT is Dalton Risner from Kansas State followed by David Edwards from Wisconsin, there's also taking any of the left tackles in this draft and sending them to the right side which you could do with Greg Little from Ole Miss or Jonah Williams from Alabama.
If your username is real bucs fan and you want the top RB in the draft every year, prepare to be disappointed. We may only see Bryce Love go in the first next spring. and that means we really need Rojo to make good.
Unless we are picking in the top 3 next draft, you can forget about Nick Bosa or Clelin Farrell. Not a great DE class.

I'm ready to sell that stock after this season. I'm fine with keeping him on the roster through 2019, but after going to the well of Brent Grimes one too many times, I think its time to invest at the position. If Dotson can't make the team next year, it'll save $4.7M in cap space. Dotson is 32 years old and this is a good class of tackles and I think we would be foolish to not go out and find some young talent.

It's certainly a position we should be looking at if the value/player falls right.
I think in round 1 we'll need to address the defense. Mainly guys who can cover or rush the QB.
