While draft night is important for the future of the New Orleans Saints, it’s also an important time for the outlook of the NFC South as a whole.
Instead of potentially going with quarterback Will Levis in the second half of the first, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers bolster the defensive front with lineman Calijah Kancey out of Pittsburgh.
While there are other spots on the team that could’ve used players at positions with less depth in the draft. Still, Kancey is a fantastic player that a lot of Saints fans wanted in New Orleans.
He’s undersized, but makes up for it with his play. He’s strong enough to make up for it and a great athlete. He’ll fit well with the bigger guys that Tampa already has on their line. He brings a great pass-rush presence next to the massive run stopper Vita Vea.
Grade: B+
