2014 Tampa Bay Bucs Draft Breakdown by. Christopher Matson

Descent speed but ridiculously long arms and height make Evans a red zone threat and a match-up nightmare. If he can utilize his size he will be an immediate impact and a possible ROY.

Round 2, Pick #38
Austin Sefairan-Jenkins, TE Washington

Prototypical tight end size, was a potential first-rounder but off-the-field issues were a concern. Excellent receiver and can block. I believe he was a steal in the second round.

Round 3, Pick #69
Charles Sims, RB West Virginia

Tall, big back with catching and leaping ability.  Combined for 1,531 yards his senior year and 14 TDs.  Runs low for his height.  Perfect for play-action, bootlegs, and third-down plays.
Round 5, Pick #143
Kadeem Edwards, OG Tennessee State

With the loss of Davin Joseph and Jeremy Zuttah an OL was a necessity.  Tall, big guy that can move but at times can be iffy in his technique.

Round 5, Pick #149
Kevin Pamphile, OT Purdue

With the OL dismantled this was also a no-brainer.  Bucs traded their 2014 7th round pick and 2015 5th round pick to grab Pamphile so obviously they see his potential given his size and speed.





Round 6, Pick #198
Robert Herron, WR Wyoming

Height

His speed and size makes him an ideal slot receiver.  With Evans and Jackson drawing the main coverage Herron has the ability to make a big impact this season. Word is in OTA’s none of the Bucs DBs can keep up with him in his routes.  The only issue is that he needs to temper his speed and utilize it when it’s necessary.

Analysis:  This is the first time in Bucs franchise history they only drafted offensively.  I believe Lovie learned from his Rex Grossman days and is doing everything he can to give McCown the weapons and protection he needs.
