Bucs Snag Value Pick in Ted Hurst

0:00On April 25th, Tampa Bay Buccaneers played its smart in the 2026 NFL draft, snagging ed rusher Ruben Bain Jr. in Round 1 when the board fell right. Then on night 2, they loaded up with linebacker Josiah Trotter from Missouri at the 48th overall pick, kicking off a hall of playmakers. Right after, they grabbed wide receiver Ted Hurst from Georgia State at the 84th spot, a guy who flew under some radars but bring serious tools to the table. Hurst stands out with his long legs and vertical speed, quick off the line to shake corners and accelerate into routes. He tracks the ball deep like a pro, and turns catches into yards after, though he could sharpen up on contested grabs. Scouts see him thriving as a boundaries-y receiver, with solid upside, handing him a round two projection that screams value this late in the second. Now with Zach Robinson calling plays, expect Hurst to stretch fields and open things up for the Bucks offense starting next season.
