48. . Linebacker. Michigan. Devin Bush Jr.. 10. player

Alongside head coach Jim Harbaugh, Devin Bush Jr. did all he could to return Michigan’s football program to its former glory.

Bush was a vital member of the Wolverines defense for the past two seasons. Developing into a premier inside linebacker in the 2019 draft class.

Projected as a first or second round pick, Bush can become the final piece to what could be a strong starting linebacker unit. If the Bucs decide to bring Kwon Alexander back into the fold, Lavonte David and Bush will do wonders for Tampa’s defense.

Bush has the versatility to play multiple positions along the defense. With an already talented unit, adding Bush could provide depth and a leader down the road. Bush is a man of few words too. It sounds a lot like David, a linebacker Bucs fans have gotten to know well over the past decade.

Bush likely won’t be worthy of the Buccaneers first-round pick, but if he falls into the second round when Tampa Bay is back on the board, you can bet that Bush will be at the top of general manager Jason Licht’s list when the time comes.
