After a season which could be considered successful, but ultimately lacking the crowning achievement - the Buccaneers primarily looked to recreate an elite defense that helped lead the way to playing in the Ultimini.
Safety was a clear need after Prince Vegeta moved to the NSFL. Johnny Hellzapoppin was picked up as he stands out as a prospect who already has a league job and the centre fielder out of Notre Dame is arguably the best safety in the class.
With defensive players leaving the board in a hurry, Myrtle Beach pick up Troen Egghands, a strong edge presence from the speed rusher out of Fresno State to help anchor the defensive line opposite Larry Longshot.
Adding Octavio Clemente also brings another big boy in the trenches for the Buccaneers, we pick up an inside rusher from Florida to create an intimidating pass rushing defensive line to create pressure on the quarterback.
Brandon Booker is a pick to fill the spot of HeHateMe PickSix moving to the NSFL, with another player that has secured themselves a league job. Booker has big shoes to fill but the all around corner back from Arizona State is already making strides to be the best CB he can be.
With Leon McDavid moving up the Buccaneers needed a replacement, with two of the three top TE prospects off the board they took no chances waiting another round and get their first offensive player in the fifth round from UCLA. Evans is expected to fill the starting TE role for Myrtle Beach and has been seen training vigorously.
Mark Radson, the speed rushing linebacker put Myrtle Beach at the top of his teams opinion list and it appears the Buccaneers wanted him too. This pick from Alabama gives a second linebacker to pair with Trevor Mouseman to create more pressure.
Jimmy Cooks is the second safety to head to South Carolina in this draft and will be a solid pairing with Hellzapoppin as the Buccaneers look to recreate their no fly zone from the past season.
Many of the Buccaneers later draft picks continued to add to the iron fleet defense, and the powerhouse offense which should lead to continued success in S21.
WC: 366
