Bucs signed Auburn LB Cassanova McKinzy.
McKinzy (6'1/248) was a three-year starter at Auburn, tallying 29.5 career tackles for loss, 8.5 sacks, and three forced fumbles. McKinzy spent time at a variety of linebacker positions for the Tigers, but best projects as a stacked inside ‘backer who can be used downhill versus the run. McKinzy is a stiff athlete with pass-coverage deficiencies, running 4.83 with weak agility scores before the draft. NFL coaches will love McKinzy’s toughness, but he is too physically limited to make a big-league impact on defense.
