Bucs select Nebraska DT Khalil Davis in sixth round

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers used their sixth-round pick to take DT Khalil Davis out of Nebraska.

The Buccaneers are having a strong NFL draft, and it continued in the sixth-round today with the drafting of Nebraska defensive tackle Khalil Davis.

Davis will be joining a Bucs defense that features some big names like Ndamukong Suh and Jason Pierre-Paul and Shaq Barrett.

Davis will be happy to be joining fellow Nebraska alums like Suh and Lavonte David. I’m sure they’ll have some fun with the rookie when they finally get on the field together.

While the Bucs have veterans along the D-line, they needed to infuse some youth into that unit, so the selection of Davis is a strong late-round pick.

Welcome to Tampa bay, Khalil!
