Posted on behalf of JScott, who took the time to research all most of these.
Who will our Tampa Bay Buccaneers look to select in tomorrow’s first round of the NFL Draft? We have about twenty or more predictions tabulated for you below. Last season Cal’s WR DeSean Jackson was the draft consensus for most Bucs Mock Drafts (ours included), only three sites that we featured pegged Aqib Talib as the Bucs pick (The Football Experts, Fantasy Tailgate, and Pro Football Planet). Check out last season’s projections by clicking here. Without further ado, feast on the madness:

Luckily there weren’t any Dan Conner or Kentwan Balmer type of draft projections. I guess Darrius Heyward-Bey would be a mild shock and/or Clay Matthews. All of those above appear to be pretty on par for where the Bucs might head. I’ll say this, take a good luck at the guys above because there is an excellent chance the Bucs will in fact Draft one of those guys. Unless they trade up or down I expect one of those names to be added to the Bucs roster tomorrow afternoon.
Don’t forget we will be live blogging the entire NFL Draft this weekend. Hope you can make it and provide your opinion on the day’s events. This is the first Draft in a long time where I have no clue who the Bucs will take, and really can’t pigeon hole many picks from start to finish… I can’t wait for this thing to kick off.
