Round-by-round Bucs draft picks

Here's something I've been asked about a few times.

I've got the final draft order from the NFL that gives the round-by-round rundown. I can now confirm the Bucs will be missing their sixth- and seventh-round picks. The sixth-round choice goes to Kansas City to complete the Michael Bennett trade, while the seventh-round pick goes to Denver for Jake Plummer. Since these picks are often undisclosed, we're never totally certain until we see the final draft order.

The Bucs, as you probably know, select 20th in the first round. From there, they will alternate with the Redskins between 20th and 21st in subsequent rounds. The teams had identical records but the Redskins had a stronger schedule, so they pick after the Bucs in Round 1. So, the Bucs pick 21st in the second round, 20th in the third round and so on.
