First, the Bucs went from three picks to five on the second day, drafting down on two occasions....

     Here's their Sunday selection:

     RD 3-- Jeremy Zuttah  OG  Rutgers

     RD 4--Dre Moore   OT  Maryland

     RD 5-- Josh Johnson  QB  San Diego

     RD 6--Geno Hayes  OLB  Florida State

     RD 7-- Cory Boyd    RB  South Carolina

     TK's Grades:

      Zuttah:  B+  He brings versatility to the OL.  Can play tackle, guard, or center.  Projected to be a guard..He's got good size, strength and foot speed.  Nice pick for near term depth, starting role in future.

      Moore A-  This was my favorite pick of the middle rounds.  Dre Moore is huge, strong, and fast.  He's got a mean streak.  He can also play either the 3-4 or 4-3.  Monte will likely mix those front's more often this season.  We just might see more of Moore by mid-season.

      Johnson  C  Not sure about this pick.  What Johnson brings is pure athleticism...He's got a strong arm but accuracy is a question.  He also excelled against lesser competition.  I say if this kid doesn't work out as QB, I would try and find a skill position for him, like WR.

      Hayes  B  This was a true value pick for the Bucs here in the sixth round.  Hayes can play the outside, and he will be learning the ropes from an FSU alum, Derrick Brooks.  Hayes has the ability to move into a starting role in time, but will be an immediate contributor on special teams in the interim.

     Boyd  D   Has no chance of making team.  No speed, no real upside.  But then again, not many 7th round picks do have an upside.
