If there’s one thing Bucs fans can take to the bank, it’s that their general manager has a hefty set of balls.

There are many examples.

Last year, Jason Licht traded up to draft a Division III left tackle in the second round, so he could turn him into a right guard. Historic nerve! And it worked!

In 2014, Licht drafted a tight end in the second round (Austin Seferian-Jenkins) that the Bucs didn’t need, and then Licht snagged a running back (Charles Sims) the team didn’t need in Round 3.

This Licht guy is amazingly confident in his draft board.

Licht’s nerves of steel extend further. After owning a garbage offensive line in 2014, Licht didn’t sign one free agent lineman before the 2015 draft. He was ready to ride with yet-to-be-drafted rookies (Donovan Smith and Ali Marpet) and wait on the risky summer free agent market (Gosder Cherilus and Joe Hawley).

And Licht also gave a public thumbs-up to signing and starting Josh McCown. Now that was fearless.

This brings Joe to superkicker Roberto Aguayo out of Florida State, one of the best college kicking prospects in years. He’ll be in the 2016 draft and there’s broad and legitimate speculation that he could be a second- or third-round pick.

So would Licht pull the trigger on Aguayo in the third round?

Great teams have money kickers. The Bucs have 30-year-old Connor Barth, whose best days might be in his rearview mirror. Barth was a miserable 6-for-11 from 40+ yards last season, among the worst percentage in the NFL.

Joe wouldn’t bet a nickel against Licht chasing Aguayo in the third round. It also doesn’t hurt that Aguayo is a Bucs fan and told Joe he is yearning to play in Tampa.

Would Joe draft Aguayo? Absolutely, if the Bucs had the luxury of an extra third-round pick, courtesy of dumping Mike Glennon.
