Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B
ValueA+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Buccaneers let Harris fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

The Buccaneers spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Tre Harris, the No. 9 name on the board, in No. 153.

Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In No. 15 they get a lockdown presence outside, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 Denzel Burke
Denzel Burke in the Round 2 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It fills a real need, too.
Pick81 Rnd3 Cam Ward
You do not let a quarterback like Cam Ward reach pick No. 81 and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
Pick117 Rnd4 Jalon Walker
Taking Jalon Walker in Round 4, Pick 16 is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick153 Rnd5 Tre Harris
They robbed the room for Tre Harris here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick233 Rnd7 Deontae Lawson
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Deontae Lawson in the 233rd pick, plain and simple. A minor need, but a need all the same.
