I know the Bucs badly need a WR and a CB. This said, I really would like to see them take a QB in the first round; maybe could get either Brohm or Henne. Garcia is in his last contract year, Greise is really a backup as is McCown. Kiss the other two goodbye.
They really need a franchise QB who can train under Garcia and hopefully take over later. WR and CB could come in later rounds.

It would not surprise me to see the Bucs take a QB in the first. Henne and Brohm are both possibilities, as is Joe Flacco. It all depends on which one Gruden and Allen prefer.
A lot of people will think it’s nuts, but they could do worse with that pick than taking any one of those players.
Players at WR and CB that could be available in the later rounds are:
WR: LSU’s Early Doucet (2nd), Michigan’s Mario Manningham (2nd), Florida’s Andre Caldwell (2nd-3rd), Vanderbilt’s Earl Bennett (3rd), Houston’s Donnie Avery (3rd).
CB: Arizona’s Antione Cason (2nd), Penn State’s Justin King (2nd), Oklahoma’s Reggie Smith (2nd), USF’s Trae Williams (3rd-4th).
