The Tampa Bay Buccaneers turned to offense with their first of three picks in the second round Brandin Cooks Jersey , taking USC running back Ronald Jones II.Tampa Bay then returned to an emphasis on defense with its final two second-round picks, taking cornerbacks M.J. Stewart from North Carolina and
Auburn's Carlton Davis.The Buccaneers closed out Friday night by picking Humboldt State guard Alex Cappa in the third round.Tampa Bay selected Washington defensive tackle Vita Vea 12th overall during Thursday's first round."We're getting five guys that can help us either in the immediate future or some point down the road," Tampa Bay general manager Jason Licht said.Finding a running back capable of easing the burden on quarterback Jameis Winston to carry the offense was a priority addressed by Jones' selection with
the 38th overall pick."I can score from anywhere on the field," Jones said. "I've always been a home-run threat."Jones rushed for 1,550 yards and 19 touchdown for USC last season. He averaged 6.1 yards per carry and scored 39 rushing TDs during his three years
with the Trojans.The Bucs haven't made the playoffs since 2007 and haven't won a postseason game since the franchise's 2002 run to a Super Bowl title.Jones said when he visited with the Bucs, "it felt like how I did when I went to USC, it just felt like home."Playing in the NFL and reaching the Super Bowl have long been Jones' goals."I've got one down, got to get the other for my dad, for myself and for the organization," Jones said.Jones' father died when he was a sophomore in high school."He definitely told me that everything that glitters isn't gold," Jones said. "Never forget who I am Dan Skuta Jersey , stay true to yourself. Those words from my father I never forget, they're always echoing in my mind."With Brent Grimes turning 35 this summer and Vernon Hargreaves III, a first-round pick two years ago, losing his starting job last season, the
Buccaneers were looking to strengthen the secondary.Stewart has been honorable mention All-ACC players each of the past two seasons."I don't want to be last, I don't want to be second, I want to be first in everything," Stewart, taken 53rd, said. "I want to win. I want to compete every
day. I think that's probably my best attribute, my competitive nature."Tampa Bay made a trade with New England Glover Quin Jersey , moving down from 56th to 63rd, and added a fourth-round selection."I was actually kind of in a negative state where I understood my value was slipping but when I got that call it changed everything," said Davis, picked
63rd overall. "I understood that I was getting an opportunity, I understood that
this organization took a chance on a player. I have so much more to offer than
what I've shown. I know that for a fact and I willing to prove that."Davis had 138 tackles and three interceptions in 38 career games.Tampa Bay added a third-round pick, No. 94 from Minnesota, to pick Cappa."We thought we were going to get three good football players and we got four," Buccaneers head coach Dirk Koetter said. "We're happy as we stand here
tonight."The Buccaneers sent fourth-and-sixth round picks to the Vikings.Tight end Greg Olsen realizes there's a sense of urgency to win a Super Bowl ring now for
a returning core group of Carolina Panthers who are fast approaching the end of
their NFL careers.

Julius Peppers is 38 years old. Mike Adams is 37. Thomas Davis is 35. Ryan Kalil is 33, and has already said this year will be his last. The roster
includes 19 players that are 29 or older, including Cam Newton."Yeah, I mean Eric Ebron Jersey , I want to get one for them ??but I want to get one for myself, too," joked the 33-year-old Olsen as the Panthers reported to
Wofford College for the start of training camp on Wednesday.Olsen knows how difficult that can be, particularly when competing in the toughest division in football. Three NFC South teams won at least 10 games last
season and reached the playoffs.Carolina won 11 games ??and was a wild card team.Olsen is among 21 holdovers from the NFC Championship team that went 17-1 three seasons ago before losing to the Denver Broncos 24-10 in the Super
Bowl."Coming so close and realizing just how hard it is to get there and fall short adds to that urgency," Olsen said. "A lot of us have been playing this
game a long time. We know there is no guarantee in anything. So you have to take
advantage when you can. ... There is no telling how many years go by until you
get a shot at another one."Panthers coach Ron Rivera said he feels that sense of urgency among some of his veterans, but is confident the players will "approach things the right way
and build to where we want to be."While the core of the team remains mostly intact ??the exceptions being Jonathan Stewart, Charles Johnson and Kurt Coleman, who were released ??the
Panthers will have the challenge of adapting to three new coordinators.Eric Washington takes over the defense after Steve Wilks became the second Carolina defensive coordinator to leave for an NFL head coaching job in two
years.Norv Turner, who once coached Troy Aikman, Emmitt Smith and Michael Irvin to a pair of Super Bowls in the early 1990s with the Dallas Cowboys, replaces
offensive coordinator Mike Shula after the Panthers finished 19th on offense
last year.Chase Blackburn is the new special teams coordinator.The defense and special teams won't change much Josh Bellamy Jersey , but the offense is expected to look noticeably different under Turner, who will be in charge of getting the most out of Newton,
one of the game's most dangerous dual-threat QBs.Newton combined for 45 touchdowns passing and rushing with 10 only interceptions in 2015 to earn league MVP honors. In the two years since his
production has dropped off with 52 combined touchdowns with 30
interceptions.Newton is learning a new scheme under Turner, but at least he's healthy.Last year he missed most of the offseason workouts and the early portion of training camp recovering from shoulder surgery as the Panthers eased him back
in.Wide receiver Devin Funchess said Newton is full of energy this summer and "ready to rock."Carolina is to build on four trips to the playoffs in the last five seasons.Christian McCaffrey said the Panthers have their eyes set on winning a Super Bowl and nothing less ??something the second-year running back believes is
"absolutely" possible."We have the guys, we have the talent and we have the leadership," McCaffrey said. "We have some unbelievable coaches as well. So we are excited."NOTES: Panthers general manager Marty Hurney said Peppers (shoulder), wide receiver Fred Ross (hip), tight end Chris Manhertz (foot) and defensive end
Bryan Cox Jr. (ankle) will start training camp on physically unable to perform
list, and wide receiver Curtis Samuel (ankle) will begin on the non-football
injury list. Hurney was optimistic all have a chance to be ready for the regular
season. ... Hurney said the Panthers will look to sign a tight end with Manhertz
injured. Authentic Womens JK Scott Jersey
