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
Ben Brahmer has followed his head coach from Iowa State to Penn State and is hoping he can cap off what has been an entertaining college career. In terms of his potential as a pro, Brahmer has some big upside and plays similarly to another former Iowa State tight end, Charlie Kolar. He is not the best blocker, or even asked to do it much, but his impact in the pass game is present on film. He should be someone the NFL will have their eyes on in the Fall.
