FutureC
The Buccaneers fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B. The Trey Zuhn III selection is the head-turner. The Buccaneers reached 52 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.
The phones were where this weekend was really won. The Hill Jr. pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.
Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Buccaneers indulged a want in Louis while a need in edge rusher, running back and other spots stayed open.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick59
Rnd2
Anthony Hill Jr.
Anthony Hill Jr. at Round 2, Pick 27 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick78
Rnd3
Daylen Everette
A straight-up fair deal on Daylen Everette at No. 78, value and slot in agreement. The roster fit checks out.
Pick106
Rnd4
Malik Muhammad
Malik Muhammad slipping to the 106th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick116
Rnd4
Kyle Louis
They bypassed pressing needs at edge rusher, running back and other spots to take Kyle Louis, a linebacker that was not the priority.
Pick155
Rnd5
Aaron Graves
The board had cheaper options than Aaron Graves at the Round 5 slot, and it noticed. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick163
Rnd5
Keagen Trost
Keagen Trost at the 163rd overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick195
Rnd6
Dallen Bentley
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dallen Bentley. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick196
Rnd6
Trey Zuhn III
Trey Zuhn III in slot 196 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick229
Rnd7
Diego Pavia
A premium they did not need to pay, Diego Pavia a notch or two before his time. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
