SBNation 2008 NFL Mock Draft rolling through 2nd Round

...UPDATE...

Like Ghosthippo pointed out in the comments section, we gambled on taking a WR with that first round pick and have really got a not-so-spectacular group of Corners to choose from. With that said... How about going DT with Red Bryant? The Bucs have been rumored to like Red and he's certainly a better value at this point then any CB we could potentially pursue. Those pesky Falcons foiled our plans by taking CB Tracy Porter. Here's New Era Scouting's take on Red:

2007 stats: 41 Tackles (11 Solo), 1 sack, 6 tackles for loss, caused a safety, blocked a field goal, 7 qb pressures, one forced fumble, one deflection, 12 third down stops, 2 fourth down stops, 12 hits inside red-zone

The kid literally has fight in him, at the Senior Bowl Practice he got in a fight with SBNation's 15th Draft Choice in OT Chris Williams. He threw several haymakers before being pulled away. I like that fight in my defensive hog mollies and I'm sure Kiffin and Company do as well.... So what do you think? If I thought we were going to trade for DE Jared Allen I wouldnt suggest this, as moving Greg White inside to field Allen, White, Haye, and Adams would be sick.. The Vikings appear to have a contract wrapped up with Allen... so this is the route i think we ought to go...

As you can see below, we are nearly On the Clock again in SBNation’s NFL Mock Draft. A couple notable guys who have yet to go off the Draft Board are: CB Tracy Porter, CB Reggie Smith (Chosen by Vikings), CB DeJuan Tribble (are you sensing a pattern?), and DT Red Bryant ... This is definitely where the Draft gets a little tougher. Just a heads up, I don’t think we’re gonna get in a 3rd round, so keep that in mind with your suggestions.

It's Mock Draft time.. SBNation's 2nd Annual NFL Mock Draft is under way. Head over to Mocking the Draft to see who SBNation's Bloggers have chosen for their respective teams.. With that said I need EVERYONE'S input on who the Bucs should draft with the 52nd Pick. I would run a poll, but thats too time consuming and who knows who'll be available when it's our turn to pick. Whoever the community suggests is who I'll attempt to Draft.

Here's how SBNation's 2nd Round of its 2008 NFL Mock Draft has shaped up thus far:

State 50 Arizona Cardinals Roy Schuening OG 6-4 306 Oregon State 51 Washington Redskins Chilo Rachal OG 6-5 315 USC 52 Tampa Bay Buccaneers 53 Pittsburgh Steelers 54 Tennessee Titans 55 Seattle Seahawks 56 Green Bay Packers (From CLE) 57 Miami Dolphins (From SD) 58 Jacksonville Jaguars 59 Indianapolis Colts 60 Green Bay Packers 61 Dallas Cowboys 62 New England Patriots 63 New York Giants

If I had to pick a Cornerback with this pick, I’d lean toward Reggie Smith or DeJuan Tribble. Tracy Porter is probably the more polished and ready Cornerback, but should Phillip Buchanon or Eugene Wilson stop a Rookie CB from making an appearance during the season, at least Smith and Tribble double up as return men… Should the Bucs take a WR in the 1st round, you would think a CB would be a no brainer with their 2nd round pick… By the way, thank goodness Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk is NOT doing the drafting for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. If he had the reins, the Bucs would Draft LB Curtis Lofton IN THE FIRST ROUND… HA! Talk about clueless sheesh…
