A common theme of draft day, similar to free agency, is a player currently on a team’s roster being forced out of their starting role and made expendable on the trade market. These players are usually younger players who have not quite lived up to their draft status. These types of trades are the bargains the Tampa Bay Buccaneers need to pursue, given their limited draft capital and the number of holes on their roster.
In free agency, players such as Cleveland Browns running back Duke Johnson Jr., and New York Jets linebacker Darron Lee, saw themselves become displaced by their current teams signing top-tier talent at their position.
