Buccaneers | Doug Martin likely feature back

Fri, 27 Apr 2012 01:26:52 -0700

Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie RB Doug Martin, one of the team's first-round selections, is likely to be the team's feature running back in his first season. Martin is an all-around back with two 1,000-yard seasons under his belt. He also caught 28 passes each of the past two seasons.

Running backs are rarely taken in the first round to ride the pine, so Martin is likely to immediately leap past RB LeGarrette Blount on the team's depth chart. Bucs head coach Greg Schiano has sent out hints that the team wants to run the ball and has implied Blount's pass protection and fumbles could be liabilities for the team.

Tampa Bay gave up second- and fourth-round selections to trade back into the first round to acquire Martin at 31st overall.

Buccaneers | Doug Martin selected 31st overall

Thu, 26 Apr 2012 20:08:15 -0700

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers traded up to select Boise State RB Doug Martin with the 31st overall selection in the NFL Draft.

Fantasy Tip: The Bucs hoped to acquire a complement to LeGarrette Blount this year, and they certainly drafted a quality player. Martin is a solid inside runner, like Blount, but he's also a good receiver out of the backfield. He's not a speed demon, though, and his ceiling is somewhat limited. more »
