Buccaneers: University of Wisconsin 2018 draft prospects

The last time we saw the Wisconsin Badgers football team they were mocking the University of Miami turnover chain on the way to an impressive 34-24 Orange Bowl victory. The Badgers finished their season as the seventh ranked team in the nation and only lost one game all season, so naturally there are some high level prospects on the roster worth looking at for the Buccaneers. There are sixteen departing seniors for Wisconsin, so we’ll go over those first and then take a look at the underclassmen that have declared for the draft.

Seniors:

Safety: Joe Ferguson

Running back: Rachid Ibrahim

Wide receiver: Jazz Peavy

Safety: Natrell Jamerson

Safety: D’Cota Dixon

Wide receiver: George Rushing

Full back: Austin Ramesh

Cornerback: Derrick Tindal

Cornerback: Lubern Figaro

Linebacker: Leon Jacobs

Defensive end: Chikwe Obasih

Linebacker: Jack Cichy

Defensive end: Alec James

Tight end: Troy Fumagalli

Defensive end: Conor Sheehy

Senior to Watch: Safety – D’Cota Dixon

Finding a safety to start opposite Justin Evans is one of the most important missions of this off-season, and Wisconsin senior D’Cota Dixon could be an option for the Bucs to look at.
