Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesC FutureB+
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Buccaneers.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Ar'maj Reed-Adams got past him. The Buccaneers do not have to explain a thing at pick No. 155.

Every board in the league had Prysock lower, and that gap is the story. They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the running back spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Akheem Mesidor
In slot 18 they get a disruptor off the edge, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick46 Rnd2 Lee Hunter
No drama and no debate, Lee Hunter went about where he belonged in No. 46. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick77 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Keionte Scott slid further than he should have, and slot 77 is lovely value for the cornerback. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick116 Rnd4 Michael Trigg
Michael Trigg at the 116th overall pick is money in the bank, a tight end taken below his worth. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick155 Rnd5 Ar'maj Reed-Adams
A offensive lineman of that caliber at No. 155 is the definition of value, full stop. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick163 Rnd5 Ephesians Prysock
Ephesians Prysock in pick 163 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick195 Rnd6 Keyshaun Elliott
Keyshaun Elliott at pick No. 195 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick229 Rnd7 Luke Altmyer
Luke Altmyer at the Round 7 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
