The Bucs need a good FS and a real #2 WR so hopefully we draft those and not an RB in the first few rounds. I don't care if the Muscle Hamster is back or not I will be almost as mad if we go RB as I was about Second Round Kicker.

So is there anyone you're hoping your team drafts this year? Hoping for linebacker or cornerback, but watch Sean pick Deshaun Watson or something else completely out of left field.

I really don't want Fournette to be a Panther just as much as Fiz.

Edge rusher, ILB, FS, TE. I'm conflicted on DT...I thought we needed one but Jarret and Hageman were playing lights out at the end of last year and playoffs.

Cam and Fournette on the same team would be vomit inducing.

3rd/4th rounder for RB imo.

Don't hang your hopes in the backfield on Jaquizz Rodgers. As much as I adore that man, he's barely even a #2.

Because we're likely to lose Babs sooner than later and Quinn likes to rotate... we need to draft a Defensive Tackle.

We're weak at guard and could use a high pick on one, and picking at 31, we're likely to be able to get a high quality one, as this position doesn't tend to go high, so quality at the position will still be available.

Sadly he was by far the best RB we had last year. Martin and Sims were bad. Unless Dalvin Cook (homer pick) falls to TB I agree 3/4 rounder should be fine. WR is by far the biggest need.

Forgot about Guard. Chester needs to go for sure.

Falcons definitely need more disruptors at DT/DL. Babs is gone, money stealing devil (brought in by the Jew Pioli) Tyson Jackson is gonna be gone, a rotation that already needed to get better is thinning out. Whatever we get from Sheed is gravy, he's a turn it on and turn it off guy.

Also need more DBs, linebackers, OL depth, TEs, a decent backup QB...

The Bucs definitely need receivers more than anything else. Ideally a speedy deep threat DeSean Jackson type to pair with big Mike. Safety is a need too but the secondary was actually decent last year despite playing Chris Conte and Bradley MacDougald for most of the year. I also have doubts that Tandy can sustain the level of play he had over the last 5 games or so considering his career to date but safety isn't really a game changer position and as long as VH3 continues to develop and Grimes doesn't fall off a cliff they can afford to wait a little on safety. It might not be a bad idea to pick up another pass rusher early too. Ayers was adequate and Spence showed potential when he wasn't injured but neither are sure things and you can never have too many pass rushers.

Falcons Jonathan Babineaux, set to become a free agent, is aware his time is up in Atlanta but right now, it's believed the 35-year-old defensive tackle will continue playing elsewhere, with connections to coaches around the league.

If he wants to ride our bench for a few mil a year in case one of our starting DTs gets injured I'm all for it. Veteran rotational players are always valuable.

Babs owns too, so there's also that. He was consistently a league leader in TFL under the Mike Smith era.

Older defensive linemen are fine, because you rotate them, so an old vet can come in and give you a crafty 20 snaps a game and be fine until injuries happen and suddenly you're asking 50 snaps from him and he dies.

Well, as the Jimmy trade proved, Sean Payton is willing to wheel and deal his best players. Can't say I'd like this move as we have a promising young WR squad, and doing this would allow defenses to focus just on Thomas and Snead. Fleener is just an afterthought.
