2011 NFL Mock Draft: How Do the Bucs Use 20th Pick to Make Playoffs?

The Buccaneers Are One Draft Pick Away From Getting To Postseason

With Akeem Ayers, Ryan Kerrigan and Aldon Smith off the Board, Adrian Clayborn becomes the target of the Buccaneers.

The Bucs had no pass rush against the Falcons at the end of the season, and they're not going to go far in the NFC South against the Falcons and Saints if they can't get to the quarterback. The Bucs saw all their flaws exposed down the stretch, so this is their best opportunity to plug those holes.

With Matt Ryan and Drew Brees in the division, it's the same problem the Jags and the Texans face. If you have dominant quarterbacks in your division, you have to build a defense that can put pressure on the quarterbacks and take them out of their game.

Clayborn showed great speed and agility at the Combine, which will serve to keep him in the first round on draft day.
