Welcome to Tampa Mark.
Looks like with the proper coaches we might have a decent defense, lots of potential. Bowers, Clayborn, Foster, McCoy, Price, Talib, Ronde, Wagner, hopefull 1 or 2 guys become studs  _________________

| Mark Barron situation reminds me a lot like Ed Reed. Reed played on a very talented team that won the national championship. Reed at 5'11 200 with 4.57 speed would go top 10 again if we were to re-draft. Barron is bigger, has a similar situation in the fact he was probably overlooked with a defense full of studs, but I just don't know if he is Reed special when it comes to playmaking ability. |

I don't think anyone has that playmaking ability besides Troy Polamalu, and even he doesn't make plays like that anymore. Kind of unfair to hold him to that standard.
Think of it more like Barron compared to Sean "What's a gap?" Jones. _________________

Finding HOF safeties is like picking a needle in a haystack. If he can be Earl Thomas good we got a good pick but if this is Donte Whitner/Michael Huff type guy we probably didn't do enough diligence. |

I'm happy to have him. He is very versatile. He can man up on the slot, play the box, and play CFer. Had he have better measureables, he would've been an elite prospect more than likely. |

I really hope your right man
I'll admit though I can't stand this pick right now, but I'm sure the more I watch of Barron I'll warm up. _________________ Adopt a Buc:

Safety was just as much a need as CB if not more after losing Jackson actually. If Barron fits what they wanna do on defense and claiborne doesn't fit then lets roll with it _________________

Imagine if we kept Jackson. Jax and Barron two head huntin ball hawks.
Oh well. Im so curious to see how the rest of our draft plays out. Coaching staff must feel very comfortable with Talibs case and the depth behind him.
I wonder what mid round corner they might have their eye on  _________________

Really more of a need. At least there's someone there to play corner. We had nothing at safety. |

Yes you're right it is actually, only thing is I was thinking we could have gotten better value at safety in the 4th or 5th _________________

If jenkins falls he's obviously the pick but I doubt it...
I'm thinking Boykin would be a really solid pick for our secondary-jumps out at you on tape.
Maybe Johnson or Robinson are other possibilities |

Barron and Smith are the only safeties worth much in this draft. The only way we got someone decent in the 4th or 5th is if we take a CB and make them a FS, a la Tanard Jackson. I actually hope we do that again in the 4th or 5th to find a FS and push Barber back to CB. _________________

| Quote: | According to the Tampa Bay Times, Mark Barron was ranked higher on the Bucs draft board than CB Morris Claiborne.
The Bucs had set the wheels in motion to trade down to No. 7 even before the Vikings chose Matt Kalil over Claiborne. In other words, they got the player they targeted -- not a consolation prize -- after losing out on Trent Richardson. Barron is expected to start from Day One. |
