Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesA- FutureB-
Keegan should have been long gone. The Buccaneers pounced, and earned a B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Buccaneers watched Trevor Keegan slide 69 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want. If Gore Jr. pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In the 26th pick they get a problem off the edge, and a steal at that.
Pick69 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
A clean, defensible pick in the 69th overall pick with a little surplus value in Cooper Beebe. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick92 Rnd3 Andru Phillips
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Andru Phillips in Round 3, Pick 29. It fills a real need, too.
Pick93 Rnd3 Cade Stover
Cade Stover slid further than he should have, and pick 93 is lovely value for the tight end. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick105 Rnd4 Hunter Nourzad
Hunter Nourzad at the Round 4 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick113 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Taking Khyree Jackson in No. 113 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick125 Rnd4 Jacob Cowing
No edge and no loss on Jacob Cowing in slot 125; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick130 Rnd4 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey at pick No. 130 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick220 Rnd6 Darius Muasau
Darius Muasau at Round 6, Pick 45 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick225 Rnd7 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan in the 225th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick246 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Frank Gore Jr. this early at pick No. 246. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
