As long as Winston is their QB, they’ll never win anything. I wouldn’t mind falling into that black hole to be paid 29 million though.

Probably right. But the check will clear so that’s good too.

Barring injury I predict he will be a Hall of Famer.

Yes, Kwon did get paid, by another team. So Devin will labor in obscurity for the next 4 years and hope there is something left of his body to cash in with another team. Great.

According to the interwebs, Alexander made the Pro Bowl in 2017.

Replacement player. Because that team is an afterthought.

Kwon has been outstanding the last couple of years with the Bucs. Pro bowls meant something a long time ago, but the selection process has gotten very lazy, and it's really pretty meaningless now.

Anyone who saw him play, knows how good he's been. Yes, the Bucs are a bad organization, but that doesn't mean good players aren't recognized.

You know who Lavonte David is, I presume, and he and Kwon each have made one pro bowl.

Kwon got drafted by TB and we’ve been hearing about him.

Thanks for making my point. If those two guys were with a decent organization they would be headed to Canton. Not saying Devin won't be a great player - he will. Just people will know him as much as they know Lavonte. Right now, many on here saying "who is Lavonte?"

I love him but we will never hear from him again. That franchise is a disaster. Anyone seen Kwon or Kendall Beckwith on the Pro Bowl rosters?? In fact, anyone seen ANY Bucs on the Pro Bowl rosters?

who cares - Daisy is gonna eat gud. BTW- Tampa area has some nice farms (horsey type).

Now Canton is your standard? Lavonte David is a pretty well known player for anyone that pays attention.

You aren't trying to be honest here. I just made the REVERSE of your point. You were implying that no one knows anybody on the Bucs (but you admit you know who Lavonte David is), and you made it seem like pro bowls are what bring this recognition, yet I just showed you that Kwon and Lavonte have the same amount of pro bowls. Lavonte has made two all pro teams, and neither of those years were the year he made the pro bowl. Now, do you still think pro bowl selections matter?

But then you close out by saying many on here are saying "who is Lavonte?".

Really? Like who? Everyone knows who he is. I guarantee most fans knew Kwon while he was there, as well. No one is arguing that the Bucs stink, and that it's not the best place to play. But to say that he'll go unnoticed?

If any player is good enough to go to Canton, they will get there.

Do you watch football? He was a pretty good player for them. Do you think San Fran gave him all that money for giggles?

Kwon made the all rookie team in 2015 and the pro bowl in 2017. He tore his ACL in 2018. And now the 49ers just gave him his second contract for $54 million, $27 guaranteed. Kwon is doing great. Probably could have done better for himself by returning for his senior year, but still doing great nevertheless.

Kendall broke his ankle in a car accident last off-season and missed his entire 2nd season. They still haven't released a timeframe for his return. That's not the Bucs fault.
