University of Miami edge rusher Rueben Bain Jr. was one of the most productive players in the country last season. His 30 7/8-inch arm length scared off some teams.

It did not scare off the Buccaneers, who ended up with a player who could prove a steal.

Tampa Bay used the 15th overall pick on Bain, who made 9.5 sacks for the Hurricanes last season and 20.5 for his three-year career.

Yaya Diaby led them in sacks in 2025 with only seven, and Shaquil Barrett's 10 sacks in 2021 was the last time the Bucs had a double-digit sacks leader.
