Buccaneers draft picks 2015: Joey Iosefa goes in seventh round

With the 231st overall pick, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have completed their 2015 NFL draft class by drafting running back/fullback Joey Iosefa out of Hawaii.

Iosefa's pretty huge for a running back, and even for a fullback at 6'0", 247 lbs. He put up a whopping 30 reps on the bench press at the combine, but his 5.02-second 40-yard dash makes one think he's very unlikely to actually run the ball much at the next level. He should compete with Jorvorskie Lane for a roster spot.

Here's what Lance Zierlein had to say about him:

One-speed running back with some weight behind his pads, but not enough explosive power to offset his lack of burst and overall athleticism.
