The Buccaneers' worst draft move since 2011

ESPN evaluated the worst and best draft moves every NFL team has made since 2011. For the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the best decision was easy: Jameis Winston, though you could make an argument for Lavonte David as well. The worst decision's a lot more difficult: the Bucs haven't had any truly massive busts over the passive five years, so Mike DiRocco went with 2011 second-rounder Da'Quan Bowers.

Defensive end Da'Quan Bowers was the team's second-round pick in 2011, but he never lived up to expectations as a first-team All-American, Bronko Nagurski winner and ACC Player of the Year at Clemson.
