NFL Mock Draft 2018: Complete first round before bowl season
Talk about a player that has the ability to be the No. 1 overall pick in this class. NC State’s senior star defensive end Bradley Chubb is a stud that will make one early picking team very happy. Chubb had a senior year filled with a ton of awards including being named an AP First-Team All-American.
A few other awards that Chubb brought to Raleigh include the Bronco Nagurski Award and the Ted Hendricks Award. Bleacher Report also named him their 2017 Defensive Player of the Year. It was truly a season to remember for both the Wolfpack and Chubb.
However, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are likely to pick in the top 10, at No. 8 overall, and could use some more help in the pass rush. Also, Chubb would be the best player left on the board at this point.
If the Bucs did bring Chubb to Tampa Bay, he would slide into a rotation with their 2017 first round pick, Noah Spence, in what could potentially be a vaunted pass rush. Chubb could end up as a Myles Garrett-like talent and the Bucs would love to add that to their roster.
