Tampa Bay Buccaneers Draft Profile: DT, Quinnen Williams

Just one year removed from taking a defensive tackle in the first round of the draft, could Tampa Bay general manager Jason Licht do it again?

In 2018 the Buccaneers traded down from 7th overall to 12th and drafted Vita Vea, a nose tackle out of the University of Washington. This came after signing multiple free agents along the defensive line, including Beau Allen and Mitch Unrein, and trading for edge rusher Jason Pierre-Paul. That unit was of course led by a top ten defensive tackle, the stalwart Gerald McCoy.
