Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall C
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Buccaneers won the night they stopped Stout from sliding. Grade: C.

You could see the war room lean forward. Upton Stout at slot 237 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. It washes out to a C, no better and no worse.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain.

So much rides on Mike Green that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Mike Green
They jumped the gun on Mike Green, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick61 Rnd2 Colston Loveland
Taking Colston Loveland in the Round 2 slot is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick120 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
A conviction pick on Emery Jones Jr. at the 120th overall pick that the board grades a round light. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick158 Rnd5 Jabbar Muhammad
A clean, defensible pick in slot 158 with a little surplus value in Jabbar Muhammad. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick237 Rnd7 Upton Stout
You do not let a safety like Upton Stout reach pick No. 237 and blink. They did not. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
