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
Niki Prongos has played in just 22 games, and has only played football since his Senior year of high school. He already looks so good when you have that sense of his development in mind, and the sky could be the limit. He remains very much a project for the 2026 season, but he could make a leap given the skillset and physical tools he boasts. He anchors well, has good lower body mechanics, and as we mentioned the physical build for him gives him an advantage over a lot of defenders.
