There are officially 27 days until the first round of the NFL draft.
In this new series, Bucs Wire will analyze the last 27 Tampa Bay Buccaneers first-round draft picks, one for each day leading up to the 2023 NFL draft. We’ll take a look at the player’s college stats, their pre-draft numbers (either via the NFL Combine or their Pro Day), their NFL stats, some player footage and analysis at the end on whether the pick itself was a good one.
Our first entry skips over 2022, since the Bucs didn’t have a first-round pick. Thus, we’re looking to 2021 to analyze Tampa Bay’s most recent first-round selection: Joe Tryon-Shoyinka.

Tryon-Shoyinka played football at Washington. He was named to the All-PAC-12 second team in 2019. He did not play football in the 2020 season, instead taking the COVID year to prepare for the NFL draft.
