Welcome back to another episode of the Adam Schaefter podcast.

0:12.1

In today's episode, we are going to be joined by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' 2018 first-round draft pick, a man that has excelled at his position,

0:25.3

who hasn't quite gotten the recognition that he deserves, but it is coming.

0:29.5

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 6'4, 350 pound defensive tackle, Vita Veaya, and we'll get him to tell you about his full name,

0:43.4

which I'm not even going to attempt to pronounce today Vita Vaya, the Great Buccaneers defensive tackle,

0:49.8

coming right up.

0:51.1

What also is coming up is the NFL trade deadline. One week from this Tuesday,

Watson's quarterbacks coach, Quincy Avery on. And we taped it on a Friday. And he predicted

1:53.3

that Watson would be traded within the next 48, 72 hours. And he wasn't. And there have been

1:59.0

so many false alarms about Deshaun Watson being traded that

you almost become numb to them. Look, he's going to get traded at some point. Absolutely.

2:08.4

I just don't know that it's going to be by the November 2nd trade deadline. I can see,
