Gerald McCoy
Any interest in Gerald McCoy, who the Bucs are reportedly shopping?
My feeling is, that if we don't come out of the draft with one of the top DT's, I would entertain trading a 5th and Hassan Ridgeway for him. McCoy is the ideal UT for Eberflus system, I just don't know how much he has left in the tank? |

He is definetly not what he used to be. Probably better than Ridgeway though. I do see them double dipping on DT in this draft. A later pick on a Khalen Saunders or Rennel Wren along with s top three pick will likely cover the position.

With the premium this system places on length for DL, I doubt Saunders is a target. Plus I don't think Eberflus wants any DL over 300 pounds, and Saunders main selling point is his athleticism at 320. It's the same reason I doubt Dexter Lawrence is a target, and I think the Colts likely value Tillery higher and Wilkins lower than the general scouting community.

Can he make plays? I think that is about the only metric worth using

You use the metrics to determine what natural advantages a given player has that would make making plays easier for them, then you compare that to the tape. More data is better in any predictive analysis exercise.

In McCoy's case, he has already established himself as an NFL player who wins his matchups. So throwing his body type into the equation is a wasted exercise. All that needs to be evaluated is his tape, his health and his desire. |

From what I understand, he’s not as good as he was but he’s still got juice left and he’s more Justin Houston than Trent Cole (yes, I’m aware he’s not an edge).
That said, I’d rather just go with Suh, but Ballard might place an emphasis on “fits the culture” and McCoy’s experience in the Tampa 2. |

For a low pick maybe. But if Ballard is at all interested I expect he’d wait for McCoy to be released.
