player. 48. . Guard. Mississippi State. Darryl Williams. 140

Although the Buccaneers invested big money in left guard Ali Marpet and center Ryan Jensen, they have a gaping hole at right guard. The work on the interior of the offensive line is far from done.

Caleb Benenoch cannot continue to start. Rookie Alex Cappa was a healthy scratch for most of the season and could be the answer, but his future is cloudy. Tampa needs to bring in some competition.

Mississippi State’s Darryl Williams will be a target in the middle rounds of the Draft. The guard position won’t get many fans out of their seats, but it’s a massive need for the Bucs. Far too often have the running backs get smashed in the backfield because the right side of the offensive line cannot hold their own.

Tampa can add another body to compete at guard and get younger in the process.
