19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
48. Jameis Winston loves his big target. It’s been true since college when he had Kelvin Benjamin. Now he’s got Mike Evans. If the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are smart, they’ll continue to feed that desire. Since they have no serious receiving options on offense outside of Evans, then they have every reason to take advantage of one of the strongest tight end classes in recent memory. Beginning with a stud from Alabama. <p>O.J. Howard is an incredible story. He was barely used on offense by the Crimson Tide, yet every time they featured him in a game plan he would utterly dominate the competition. He’s big, strong, fast and features a pair of soft hands for making the catch. On top of that he’s quite an effective blocker too, rarely missing his assignments or giving a poor effort. As complete a player on offense that a team will find in this draft.</p>. TE. Alabama. O.J. Howard . 19. player
