The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have always lived by the philosophy that the best offense is a great defense.
After an awful start to last season, the Buccaneers got hot down the late stretch, winning two of their final three games, including a 20-17 overtime victory of the Super Bowl Champion New Orleans Saints.
With the third overall pick in the draft, the Buccaneers could have two great options available at defensive tackle. While Ndamukong Suh is considered by many to be one of the first players selected in the draft, many others feel that Oklahoma defensive tackle Gerald McCoy is the better of the two prospects. Both could be available here.
Also contending with the third-overall selection is offensive tackle Russell Okung, who could protect the blind side of quarterback Josh Freeman and help speed his development.
Trading down could also be an option, but it is unlike as Tampa Bay tends to treasure their first-round picks.
