2027 NFL Draft Summer Report: Quincy Rhodes Jr., Edge, Arkansas
· Yahoo Sports
Summer is here, 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.
Visit sport-newz.biz for more information.
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
Quincy Rhodes is someone who has gotten some first-round buzz, and while I don’t see it, he is a very capable second-rounder for me at this point. I love how he is able to adapt to what blockers throw, almost like a fighter finding his range and what will work. He uses his size and length to get leverage and win one-on-ones, and it also allows him to make plays in the run game. Overall, he just has plenty of options, and it keeps blockers on their toes, and I appreciate that.
