every year during draft process There are players who lobby for coaches and coordinators to elect general managers. The Bucks are no exception in this regard, and the offensive will get his first chance to speak out with his coordinator Dave Canales.
We all know what Canales’ offense looks like based on his time in Seattle and the coaches he worked for. and his own comment From his introductory press conference in February.

He works very hard and we talk to him all the time about how he feels compared to one player over another, across positions, so he has a voice. there is. “
Is he in the war room every draft day? Let’s just say Licht has his own style when it comes to doing this.
“Now the draft room operates a little differently than everyone is there,” Licht said. “Be a coach [Todd Bowles] And me, and my scouts and owners. But they are always on the phone asking questions. “
There is some curiosity about the types of players Canales excels at, especially skill positions. We know he likes violent runners, and the whole of Tampa Bay is looking to run faster.
Bucs also adds a tight end, as Licht calls this class the deepest of the last decade. The Bucs have to decide whether to make Rachaad White his running back, and whether he will be a suitable tight end to his credit for this type of offense, Cade Otton and Ko Kieft. I have. Tampa Bay could also substitute another offensive tackle for Donovan Smith.

“I think it’s quite different from that,” Licht said. “There are some similarities to the movie you’re referring to. I like that movie. It’s fun. It looks like you’re doing more than you are. The work is done. You You’ve got your board set, you know who you’re targeting, who you’re promoting for, and when you’ll be promoting.
“So wait, wait for it to drop, and see what happens. I will allow you to come.”
