TAMPA — Matt Bryant's 35-yard field goal as time expired beat the Bucs Sunday,  34-32, at Raymond James Stadium.

But the loss to Atlanta gained Tampa Bay a top-five pick in the 2019 NFL draft.  The Bucs will have no worse than the No. 5 pick and will have the fourth pick if Oakland beats Kansas City in a late game Sunday.
