The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have added more help for a struggling defensive line, selecting UCLA tackle Brian Price with the third pick in the second round of the NFL draft on Friday night.

Price was the Pac 10 defensive player of year at UCLA last season. He made 23 1-2 tackles for loss and had had seven sacks in 2009.

The Bucs began their draft by taking Oklahoma defensive tackle Gerald McCoy with the third pick of the first round. The team has a need for playmakers on offense, particularly at wide receiver, but is also committed to fixing a run defense that ranked last in the league against the run in 2009.
