Before I begin, Bucs fans, I’m going to start with this: do not start with the “Clemson defensive ends are garbage” narrative. The past doesn’t matter in this instance. Yes, Gaines Adams and Da’Quan Bowers were not/are not good pass rushers in the NFL, but that doesn’t mean Lawson won’t be, too. You can’t judge a player based on the uniform he wore in college, alone. If you could, the Bucs should’ve steered clear from Jameis Winston given Florida State’s track record with quarterbacks in the NFL.
