The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are gearing up for the NFL Draft with their eyes on improving their defense. While inside linebacker and cornerback are commonly mentioned as areas of need, a new mock draft from The Athletic suggests that safety should not be overlooked. Writer Ben Standig predicts that the Buccaneers could select South Carolina standout Nick Emmanwori at No. 19, highlighting his athleticism and playmaking abilities.
Emmanwori, known for his impressive combine performance, could bring a much-needed boost to Tampa Bay’s secondary. With other top defensive prospects already off the board, including Alabama linebacker Jihaad Campbell, Emmanwori emerges as a potential target for the Buccaneers. His exceptional athleticism and scoring ability make him an intriguing choice to pair with Antoine Winfield Jr. in the backfield.
The Buccaneers would benefit from utilizing Emmanwori as a strong safety, adding depth and talent to their defense. While the team has been linked to other players in mock drafts, Emmanwori’s unique skill set could make him a valuable addition to the roster. As draft night approaches, the Buccaneers will have to evaluate their options and determine if Emmanwori is the right fit for their team.
