Javon Kinlaw has been a commonly mocked player to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the first-round of the 2020 NFL Draft. Usually, this is because the team misses out on one of the “Top-4” offensive tackles in this year’s class. The fact defensive tackle isn’t a commonly mocked second or even third-round position for the Bucs, means it’s more about Kinlaw’s talent and upside than it is about position need.
The second part of this statement doesn’t mean defensive tackle isn’t an area of need, it just isn’t a top position of concern. So if it isn’t Kinlaw, we’re likely looking at a late day two or day three pick being spent by Jason Licht in search of more line depth than the team currently has.
