2011 NFL Mock Draft: Ryan Kerrigan Is the Answer for Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Ryan Kerrigan is Near Consensus Pick for Buccaneers in 2011 NFL Mock Draft
The experts are in complete agreement here. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers need more than anything, a defensive end. I agree, with one slight caveat.
In the next few days, the Buccaneers will have to ask whether they are confident with their secondary as it is. Aqib Talib's recent legal issues may force the Bucs to go hunting for a corner back before free agency gets opened.
The glaring need before all that mess was for a player that could get to the quarterback while holding down the run from the wings. The near consensus pick for Tampa Bay is Ryan Kerrigan.

Bowers is not nearly as much of a risk here as he would be even 5-7 picks earlier. He's a top-10 talent who could very well be available because of the legitimate concerns about his knee.
