One thing we haven’t done much of this 2017 NFL draft season is look at multi-round mock drafts. The first round is kind of played out, so let’s take a look at a couple of multi-round mock drafts. Chad Reuter’s five-round mock at NFL.com, and Behind The Steel Curtain’s four-round mock draft.
One thing they have in common: both have the Bucs taking a safety in the first round, Michigan’s Jabrill Peppers and Connecticut’s Obi Melifonwu, respectively. I’m more of a fan of the second, but he’s more likely to be a second-round pick — and both players have to answer some questions about their ability play the center-field role, which is what the Bucs need out of a new safety.
