Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesB+ FutureB-
The Buccaneers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

The De'Corian Clark selection is the head-turner. The Buccaneers reached 76 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. The bottom line is a respectable B.

They banked enough surplus on Mondon Jr. to cover a lot of smaller sins. The Campbell pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher and quarterback. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In the 28th pick they get a three-down second-level presence. Need was not the driver here.
Pick53 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
A curious use of No. 53. Edge rusher and quarterback needed the pick; a linebacker in Jihaad Campbell did not.
Pick83 Rnd3 Darien Porter
Fair-plus on Darien Porter, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick89 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott slipping to the 89th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick92 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at pick No. 92 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick103 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
A top-tier running back at a bargain, TreVeyon Henderson in the Round 4 slot, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick131 Rnd4 Jake Majors
They barely believed it either: Jake Majors still on the board at the 131st overall pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick153 Rnd5 Mason Taylor
They will replay Mason Taylor at pick 153 for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick156 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. at No. 156 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick165 Rnd5 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles in pick No. 165 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick194 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
De'Corian Clark at Round 6, Pick 19 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick235 Rnd7 Micah Morris
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Micah Morris well ahead of where he belonged. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
