Bucs Grab Bain: Top Pass Rusher at 15

0:00It's April 2-8. You're listening to NFL News today, AI-powered football coverage. I'm Cory with the story. The Teva Bay Buccaneers grabbed Miami-Ed Russia Rubin-Bain Jr. with a 15th overall pick in the 2026 NFL draft. They desperately needed pass rush firepower, and this move fills that gap big time. Bain slipped a bit after projections had him going higher, mainly because his arm length measured just 30 and 7-8 inches at the combine. That scared off some teams, turning him into a steal for the Bucks at that spot. Former Bucks coach, John Gruden, was all in on Bain even before the draft, calling him a top 4 talent no matter the arm issue. He straight up said, he'd take him in the top 5 if he had the chance. Nick Savin chimed in too, pointing out nobody's arms were long enough to block Bain last season. The guy racked up 83 quarterback pressures in 2025, proving he's tough to handle on the line. Now the real test comes this fall. Can Bain turn that college dominance into NFL wins and quiet the doubters for Tampa Bay?
