After back-to-back weeks of the secondary getting torched, the Buccaneers are forced to use another high draft pick at the cornerback position.

It was a rough afternoon for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as they were beaten much worse than the scoreboard indicated in a 31-24 loss to the New Orleans Saints yesterday. I wish it were under better circumstances, but mock draft Monday is here as the Buccaneers look to move forward and get ready for the Carolina Panthers over the seas in London next week.

Last week saw the Buccaneers land high caliber safety Grant Delpit, and now, as they pick 17th in the draft again this week, the pewter and red will have an opportunity to get their hands on more top talent. With a new head coach in Bruce Arians and a solid coaching staff around him, one would think that the Bucs are close, but is this true?

They are, however, missing talent at some of the most crucial positions to winning games in the National Football league. With eleven games to go, the Bucs have time to turn the season around, and have the offensive talent to do so.

After a week five defeat at the hands of the Saints, here is a mock draft Monday for the pewter and red.
