A few rundowns ago, I stated that the Bucs and GM Jason Licht should take a long look at Georgia QB Jake Fromm after the first round. It appears ESPN’s Mel Kiper agrees. He recently stated, via the Tampa Bay Times, that “If you’re looking for a day two possibility at quarterback, I would look at Jake Fromm,” then Kiper said, “Maybe (Washington’s) Jacob Eason if he maybe drops. But Fromm would be more of the guy in the second or third round.’’
I agree 100 percent. If it’s the second round, it would be impossible to ignore Jake Fromm if he is still on the board. However, there is a question of his arm strength. He must prove at the combine that he was the arm to play in Bruce Arians’ offense, which involves making a lot of passes downfield. Other than that, Fromm is an excellent QB and would be a great option to have if Winston doesn’t work out.
