19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

David Njoku . 19. player. 48. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers made a smart decision by adding Desean Jackson to the offense in free agency. His speed on the outside will be an immediate asset, taking pressure off Mike Evans on the other side, as if he needed that much help as is. Now the team should think about going for the jugular. There is one other way they could make life more difficult for defenses. Adding a tight end into the scheme who can be a serious threat in the passing game. <p>David Njoku might be the most fascinating tight end in this class. Not because of his size or his strong hands and athleticism. All of which are impressive. It’s his rare ability to run after the catch. He basically becomes a giant running back, able to deliver stiff arms and leap over defenders. He’s also much better than advertised as a blocker. The fact he’s a Florida local from Miami makes it even sweeter.</p>. TE. Miami Fl.
