With The 20th Pick In The NFL Draft The Tampa Bay Buccaneers Select...

DP's Pick:
Akeem Ayers, LB, UCLA

With all of the DE's practically off the board the Bucs select a LB. The passed two years the Bucs selected 2 DT's so getting a physical specimen such as Ayers is a must. He should be able to shoot the gaps as well as be decent in cover. He's also a great tackler so that's always a plus.

BMack's Pick:
Ryan Kerrigan, DE/OLB, Purdue

There are some questions if Kerrigan is an every down DE, but he is a sack machine (12.5 sacks last year), and that is something the Bucs need terribly after ranking 30th in the NFL in sacks. On top of that he led the country in tackles for loss, so he knows how to shed blocks and get behind the line. Very solid pick by the Bucs here, and somewhat of a steal if he falls this far.

With The 17th Pick In The NFL Draft The New England Patriots Select...

DP's Pick:
Ryan Kerrigan, DE, Purdue

Well I believe this pick will be traded, but lets just pretend they will use this pick. It's pretty obvious that the Patriots need some defensive line help and now that all the guys I believe will be good are gone, they go with the next big thing. Kerrigan doesn't have a high ceiling like the other guys in this draft, but can be plugged in immediately and that's what the Patriots need the most. He is smart guy, was a team captain and a high character guy, something that the Patriots look at.

BMack's Pick:
Muhammad Wilkerson, DE, Temple

He was a DT in college, but most people think he will be a DE in a 3-4 defense. He can get pressure on the QB, which is something the Patriots have been missing for a couple years now. With good CBs, Warren coming back to the defensive line the Patriots should be a much improved defense if they can get a guy like this in the draft. I do agree with DP that there is a good chance that they trade this pick, because they seem to do it every year, but if they were to stick around this is exactly the kind of player they would be looking for.
