Buccaneers Select WR Tyler Johnson In Fifth Round

Well, that took what seemed like forever. After trading away both their fourth round picks - pick 117 used in the trade Thursday night to move up and get Tristan Wirfs while pick 139 was used in the deal for tight end Rob Gronkowski - the Buccaneers used their first day three pick on wide receiver Tyler Johnson - their second pick out of the University of Minnesota.

The 6’1”, 206lb receiver finished his four year collegiate career with 213 receptions for 3,305 yards - 15.5 yards per catch - and 33 touchdowns.
