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
Sammy Brown was the last linebacker I watched in the class, and he may be the best heading into the 2026 season. He is a blast to watch as he roams the middle of the field and is in position to make a play on the ball on the ground or in the air. He has light feet to stay in front of defenders in space, which may be where he shines brightest. Overall, he is a very sound linebacker to patrol the middle of the field for Clemson and I believe he can do that in the NFL as well.
