Tampa Bay Buccaneers har sikret sig University of Miamis defensive end Rueben Bain Jr. som det samlede 15. valg i NFL-draftet 2024. Med sin imponerende præstation sidste sæson og en armudfoldning på 30 7/8 tommer ventes han at blive en værdifuld tilføjelse til Bucs’ forsvarslinje.
Bain leverede 9,5 sacks for Hurricanes i 2023 og har akkumuleret 20,5 sacks i løbet af sine tre år på universitetet. Hans evne til at presse quarterbacken og skabe pres på modstanderens angreb har gjort ham til en af de mest produktive defensive ends i landet.
Beslutningen om at vælge Bain på 15. pladsen kommer ikke som nogen overraskelse, da Tampa Bay desperat havde brug for at styrke sin defensive line. Sidste sæson blev holdet ledet af Yaya Diaby med blot syv sacks, mens Shaquil Barretts 10 sacks i 2021 var det seneste eksempel på en double-digit sacks-leder for Bucs.
Med Bains fysiske egenskaber og erfaring ventes han at konkurrere om en startposition allerede i sin rookie-sæson. Hans evne til at dominere modstandere med sin længde og hurtighed gør ham til en potentiel game-changer for Buccaneers’ forsvarslinje.
