The Buccaneers are just a month away from one of the most hyped NFL Draft’s in recent team history.

With the Buccaneers coming off of a promising 2016, there’s more excitement surrounding One Buc Place than there has been in the past decade.

During these past struggling seasons, Pewter Report has been providing in-depth Buccaneers coverage for the faithful and hopeful. Most fans of the team are also fans of the site as they continue to bring top-notch coverage of Tampa’s NFL franchise.

Walking the Plank had the honor of bringing PR’s own Trevor Sikkema onto the show and he, James and Dave talked extensively about the 2017 running back class.

Highly touted as one of the deepest classes ever seen at the position, the league may have gone the way of the pass, but these runners are looking to make their mark.

We have our regular mix of power runners, speed guys and the ever elusive well-rounded three down backs.

Of course, everyone knows about Dalvin Cook and Christian McCaffrey as they’re just two of the names being viewed as potential day-one targets this year.

However, in the episode, the guys also dove a little deeper.  Speaking about strengths and concerns is always interesting. All three of them talked in depth about how they view some of this year’s prospects.

One hot topic this off-season has been former Oklahoma running back Joe Mixon.

These three tackled the subject as well, with some interesting thoughts on how and if Mixon could be on the Bucs’ draft radar.
