Welcome back to the Locked-on NFL Draft podcast.

I'm Damian Parson.

That is Keith Sanchez.

And on today's episode, we are breaking down the rookie season for Tampa Bay Buccaneers' first round pick, Emeka, Ibuka.

We're going to explain our grade. We're going to discuss the concerns.

but I'll let you respond that in just a second, Keith.

On the season, 63 receptions, 938 yards receiving six receiving touchdowns.

that he might have missed some time. He's, that they thought he was going to miss extended time,

but he just played through it and battled through it for the whole entire season. So

hamstring injury, week six, he was never really the same guy outside of maybe

like one really good game after that.
