_“Look, Glazer, you’ll get the secret list on Wednesday like you always do.”_
Is Bucs ownership involved in the team’s draft, other than large Uber Eats orders making their way to One Buc Palace?
Buccaneers Ring of Honor general manager Jason Licht shed light on that dynamic today during his visit to WDAE radio (where you can listen to the JoeBucsFan Show this Saturday at 10 a.m.).
Without being asked, Licht explained that Team Glazer is not involved in the draft process, though they’re given sort of a pregame program so they can understand the Bucs’ non-moves.
> “So every year before the draft, you know, my owners are awesome. They don’t look over my shoulder and ask me every day who are we taking or give any input; they trust me,” Licht said. “But I give them a document the day before the draft; ‘these are the players you’re going to see maybe-possibly go very high that we have \[rated\] low. And these are the reasons why.’ And there’s usually about a dozen of those players. So, it’s kind of interesting.”
Very cool insight from Licht.
Man, Joe would pay good money to get a peek at that list, or even pre-draft lists from past year.
Licht also noted there are quite a few players in this year’s draft that the draft industrial complex ranks highly that his staff does not.
