The Tampa Bay Buccaneers finished the season with a record of 7-9, an improvement over 2018 and 2017 when they finished 5-11 each time. The Bucs now hold the 14th pick in the 2020 NFL Draft in April, and mock drafts are all over the place when it comes to figuring out who the Bucs will take. Will they emphasize defense again or look to the offensive side of the ball in the first round?
Yesterday, USA TODAY’s latest mock draft had the Buccaneers taking offensive tackle Mekhi Becton out of Louisville with the 14th pick. The 6-foot-7, 368 pound behemoth would certainly help the team address their need along the offensive line.
But, can the Bucs actually find decent value at the 14th spot? Let’s take a look now at the last five players taken with the 14th pick in the NFL draft to see how they’ve fared so far in the league.
