Summer is here, sort of, and it is everyone’s favorite time of the year, scouting time. Every year, we do Summer Scouting to preview college football for Bucs fans, but also give them an idea of names to follow and watch in the fall as needs pop up for Tampa Bay.
Are we going to write about quarterbacks? Offensive tackles? Edge rushers? You know it, but why? Because other NFL teams will draft them, just as they will draft every other position. It all matters whether these players end up on the Bucs, the Bears, or the Steelers. We write these so Bucs fans can be the most informed fans.
So if you are still with us, enjoy our latest Summer Scouting report as we prepare you for the Fall.

Player Summary
Whit Weeks is a really fun linebacker prospect as he plays with literally every ounce of his being. Not many more players use the effort that he does, and as a result, he overcomes some shortcomings. What he showed on top of that effort was the ability to move sideline to sideline, provide decent zone coverage, and play a controlled physical style. All of that rolls him into one of the safer linebacker prospects this next draft cycle with some upside to boot.
