DE/OLB. 4. player. Pick Analysis. LSU. Arden Key. 48. Scouting Report

The Tampa Bay offense is pretty set, so the focus needs to shift to the defense this draft.

Running a base 4-3, the Bucs could slide Arden Key from end to linebacker with ease, as the LSU star has plenty of speed.

Key missed the first two games of this season, but has continually gained steam as the season has progressed. Standing 6-6 and weighing almost 240 pounds, he should be able to pack on muscle to his frame moving forward.

If you needed more reason to believe Key is a future NFL star, he had his best game of the year vs. Alabama, recording eight tackles, including four solo stops.

The Bucs would be able to pair Key with the likes of Gerald McCoy, Kwon Alexander and Vernon Hargreaves III.

On the year, Key has made 30 tackles with four sacks and forced a fumble.
