Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall
C+
ValueC
NeedB-
TradesB-
FutureB-
A weekend that raised as many questions as it answered. The Buccaneers get a C+. Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Buccaneers never addressed interior defensive lineman, and it is the kind of gap that lingers. It lands right in the middle: a C+, no more, no less.
They are betting Campbell proves the room right and everyone else wrong. On the needs board they went 1 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.
The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
Jihaad Campbell
In the 19th pick they get a three-down second-level presence, though they paid up to get him. More want than need.
Pick53
Rnd2
Maxwell Hairston
A conviction pick on Maxwell Hairston at the 53rd overall pick that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
