Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureC+
The Buccaneers bled value on every deal, hence the D-.

The Khristian Boyd pick is the one that will follow the Buccaneers into the fall. They took him 45 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. Put together, it is a D-.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Sainristil. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and interior defensive lineman is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In Round 1, Pick 26 they get a building block for the line. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick57 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe slipping to the 57th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick63 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
They did well to land Payton Wilson in the 63rd overall pick, just ahead of his grade. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick89 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at No. 89 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick92 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
The board had Mike Sainristil higher than the Round 3 slot, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick94 Rnd3 James Williams
They left a pile of value on the table to take James Williams this early at pick No. 94. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick124 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
No drama and no debate, Johnny Wilson went about where he belonged in slot 124. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick125 Rnd4 Jalyx Hunt
Jalyx Hunt at the 125th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick131 Rnd4 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick in pick 131 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick133 Rnd4 Khristian Boyd
A big swing on Khristian Boyd at the Round 4 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. It fills a real need, too.
Pick220 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
Jared Wiley at Round 6, Pick 45 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick246 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Edefuan Ulofoshio at the 246th overall pick. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
