TAMPA, Fla. -- With pro days and private workouts in full swing in preparation for the 2017 NFL draft, here are some players the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have been looking at this week and how they might fit onto the Bucs roster:
Obi Melifonwu, safety, Connecticut
Melifonwu had a private meeting with Bucs defensive backs coach Brett Maxie on Thursday, according to a source, one day after a strong showing at his Wednesday pro day, which was attended by national scout Byron Kiefer. Most of these pro days have been attended by area scouts, so the Bucs have indicated a strong level of interest.
