Entering this season, fans were skeptical of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' 2025 draft class. Jason Licht has proven in the past he's a master drafter, but there were some pretty interesting swings that had us all wondering how things would play out.
Through eight games this season, Tampa's rookie class has stepped up and led the team to a strong 6-2 start.
Emeka Egbuka is the clear standout pick. The 19th overall pick out of Ohio State wasn't an immediate necessity, but turned into one pretty quickly. Entering the year, Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, and Jalen McMillan were all healthy and coming off fantastic seasons.
