Vikings’ Lewis Cine says Buccaneers ‘did me so dirty’ at NFL Draft
New Minnesota Vikings safety Lewis Cine is bothered by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers making NFL Draft night promises they did not keep.
An NFL team thinking they would take one player and then selecting another at the draft is not uncommon. And players being disappointed they did not land with the franchise they hoped to is also a common occurrence after the annual seven-round event. However, Georgia alum Lewis Cine still has a bad taste left in his mouth from his NFL Draft experience last month.
Cine was the final player selected in the first round — pick 32 to the Vikings. Being a first-round pick is still a meaningful milestone for any player. However, in a recent conversation on “The Richard Sherman Podcast” the talented defensive back revealed he was misled by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers heading into April 28 and was given assurances he would be the team’s first selection at No. 27.
