The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have a habit in recent years of hitting on most of their important draft picks (ignore the 2021 class).

Outside of a few rare misses, Jason Licht and the Bucs have done well to find lots of value in the guys they need most, and that looks to be the case with the Class of 2023.

While each guy has done a lot to prove their worth on a team that needs the young guys to step up, YaYa Diaby has arguably done the most in recent weeks to make a name for himself and help the team as a whole.

Diaby was one of those picks that was loved a lot in the moment and didn't take long for fans to see why.

It took a little bit for the third-round pick out of Louisville to see the field and get the reps to make a difference, but that difference over the past four games should be enough for the Bucs to start making some changes with playing time.

Diaby currently sits at second on the team in total sacks, tied with Shaq Barrett with four and trailing only Vita Vea. That is not too shabby for a rookie.

The rookie pass-rusher is doing everything possible to create space, get to the quarterback, and finish when it matters, and performances like that are going to play out in the long run.

Outside of Barrett, the Bucs don't have much in the form of a set number two to rush the passer, and it stands to reason that another stretch like this one (four sacks in four games) should lead to Diaby emerging as the second guy on a team that desperately needs one.

Buccaneers continue to disappoint in recent loss

Another rough one.
