Buccaneers
Buccaneers OLB coach Larry Foote compared first-round LB Rueben Bain Jr. to former Steelers teammate and LB James Harrison, who won the league’s Defensive Player of the Year award back in 2008.
“Back in my Pittsburgh days, I played with a guy named James Harrison like that,” said Foote, via ESPN. “It was just — you couldn’t block him. [Bain] has that trait, he has that ability. He plays with that attitude and mindset that you look for — he’s mean, he’s nasty, and he’s been doing it for a long time…Bigger and faster — you can collapse the pocket versus the pass. It brings a lot. You always want to go with the bigger fighters. And if you can get that, that’s what you’re going to choose — 10 out of 10 [times].”
