re: Auburn in the NFL

ESPN.com has an article where each NFL team's beat writer is charged to make a "bold prediction" for the upcoming season.

Here is the Tampa Bay beat writer's prediction:

quote:

---

Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Rookie Carlton Davis will win a starting job.

Davis, a second-round draft pick, will beat out Vernon Hargreaves and Ryan Smith to become the Bucs' starting cornerback opposite Brent Grimes. Hargreaves will move to nickelback, which is where he spent a large portion of last season. Davis was already getting a portion of first-team reps during OTAs and minicamp. -- Jenna Laine
