I know we don’t need a RB, but boy would Shonn Greene be a great asset to have. I also know Jarron Gilbert doesn’t play the position like Jim Bates wants, but he would be a great motor to add to the line. Obviously I would be pretty ecstatic with a Quan Cosby or Greg Carr selection. The biggest name left on the board is Michael Johnson, many thought he was a first day pick and he has slid like a landslide into the third round. I doubt he falls the necessary 16 picks to fall to the Bucs. Macho Harris would be a nice pick up at Cornerback to help push Elbert Mack. There’s a lot of talent left in the second round it’s just a matter of whether they hang around for the Bucs picks…
