Jihaad Campbell continues to be the obvious top linebacker in this class - but there may be some players on day two that are better options for the Bucs than Jalon Walker

Running theme of linebackers in this class is that they're undersized - but there are some elite run defenders the Bucs can add to the defense

The NFL Draft has a lot of positions that are deep in talent - and edge rusher is one of them. Going through my top fits for the Buccaneers at edge across all three days of the draft

One day three prospect in particular is going to be a steal for someone, largely because of the school he attended
