During this period of lead up to the NFL draft, it’s typical to do some analysis of drafts gone by.  A fair period of time to evaluate a draft is after four years, but we have already reviewed the 2012 draft class.  Instead, we go back one more year to look at the group from 2011.  How did the Buccaneers’ class perform?  Where are they now?
