2011 NFL Draft Results: Buccaneers Steal Da'Quan Bowers in Second Round

Buccaneers address defensive front, add former Clemson Standout Da'Quan Bowers

As the second round of the 2011 NFL Draft kicked off on Friday evening the question in everyone's mind remained the same: How far will Da'Quan Bowers fall?

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers would answer that question when they were on the clock at No. 51.

Bowers was at one point thought to be a top two pick in the draft, but a lackluster performance in front of scouts and a less than stellar combine hurt his draft stock.

Adding to Bowers' woes was a knee injury that scouts and physicians alike had trouble assessing. All players have injuries, and teams can work with that. But if a players' ability to recover comes into question their stock can plummet.

At No. 51 his upside well outweighs the questions that surround him and if he's able to stay on the field he'll be a very effective on the end and should provide consistent pressure on opposing quarterbacks every down he's out there.
