Buccaneers select WR Emeka Egbuka with 19th pick
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers selected Ohio State wide receiver Emeka Egbuka with the 19th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, despite not having a pressing need at the position. Egbuka leaves Ohio State as the school's all-time leader in receptions, known for his reliable hands, route running, and versatility both as a receiver and return specialist. Throughout his college career, he frequently stepped up in key moments and contributed significantly to Ohio State's national championship run, overcoming an injury-plagued season to post strong numbers his final year. While Egbuka may not possess elite speed or athletic traits, scouts praise his high football IQ, work ethic, and ability to contribute from the slot or outside, making him a high-floor prospect with Pro Bowl potential. His addition gives Tampa Bay further depth at receiver and prepares the team for a future beyond current stars like Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. Egbuka's well-rounded skill set and willingness to block make him a valuable asset for the Buccaneers' offense.
