Tampa Bay Bucs draft Duke center in 1st round

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers selected a 21-year-old center from Duke University as their 26th overall pick on Thursday in the first round of the NFL Draft. Graham Barton, the 6-foot-5, 313-pound player, played center and tackle at his university and reminds the team of some existing players with the Bucs. "He reminds me, and a lot of us, a little bit of Ali," General Manager Jason Licht said at a press conference. The Bucs picked him in an effort to try to toughen up their interior offensive line.
