Graham Barton is set to impress in his rookie year.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers had some trouble on the interior offensive line for 2023, and they tried to rectify it by drafting a center in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft.
The Bucs selected Graham Barton with the No, 26 pick in the NFL Draft, moving him from left tackle where he played in college to center. Teammates and coaches alike have said a lot of great things about Barton, and now, the national media is catching on, to.NFL.com writer Chad Reuter made his predictions for the 2024 All-Rookie team, and he had Barton getting the nod at center.
Barton is set to replace Buccaneers center Robert Hainsey, who will likely serve as a backup with the ability to compete for a guard spot. Barton will first have to learn the offensive system under Liam Coen, and he's looked toward the rest of the team and their learning experiences to help get the offense down himself.
I just think keeping my head above water and taking in as much as I can, just trying to listen to everyone," Barton said after mandatory minicamp. "Understanding my position as a rookie, I just got here, I don’t know anything. telling myself that and trying to soak everything in has kind of been my mindset."River Wells is a sports journalist from St. Petersburg, Florida, who has covered the Tampa Bay Buccaneers since 2023.
