Vita Vea goes to the Buccaneers at No. 12

After trading back to the No. 12 pick, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers selected Washington defensive tackle Vita Vea.
Fantasy Impact:
It was shocking to see the Bucs pass on Derwin James with this pick, but it's hard to fault the pick of Vea, who appears to be Haloti Ngata reincarnated. He's going to create a cog in the middle of the field alongside Gerald McCoy, Jason Pierre-Paul, and Vinny Curry. After struggling to get pressure on quarterbacks last year, they shouldn't struggle anymore. The Bucs have spent a lot of equity on their offense in previous drafts, so it's good to see them take care of their defense with a high pick. Vea is one of the players who everyone would love to have on their team.
