FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Buccaneers and Henderson: C-. Somebody in the Round 5 slot was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Buccaneers sat still while TreVeyon Henderson, the No. 70 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. Some smart calls, some head-scratchers, and a C- in the wash.
Every board in the league had Bryant lower, and that gap is the story. They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
The veteran additions, Keion White chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.
So much rides on Will Campbell that the real verdict is a season or two away.
Pick Analysis
Pick15
Rnd1
Will Campbell
In the 15th pick they get protection for the quarterback, though they paid up to get him. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick30
Rnd1
Will Johnson
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Will Johnson. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick66
Rnd3
Tyler Booker
Value with a capital V on Tyler Booker in pick No. 66, a genuine coup. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick79
Rnd3
Sonny Styles
They robbed the room for Sonny Styles here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick94
Rnd3
Rylie Mills
They reached a country mile for Rylie Mills at slot 94, and the board is aghast. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick108
Rnd4
Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins at Round 4, Pick 7 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick113
Rnd4
Jay Higgins
They will replay Jay Higgins at the 113th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick114
Rnd4
Deone Walker
Deone Walker at pick 114 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick133
Rnd4
Cobee Bryant
This one needs a full-page explanation: Cobee Bryant in slot 133, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick138
Rnd4
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. in pick No. 138 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick151
Rnd5
Colston Loveland
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Colston Loveland in the Round 5 slot, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick153
Rnd5
Cody Simon
Cody Simon in No. 153 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick164
Rnd5
TreVeyon Henderson
Circle this one: TreVeyon Henderson at the 164th pick is a fall that decides a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick175
Rnd5
Harold Perkins Jr.
Somehow Harold Perkins Jr. was still sitting there in Round 5, Pick 37, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick177
Rnd6
Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at pick 177 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick181
Rnd6
Kevin Winston Jr.
A reach on Kevin Winston Jr. in the 181st overall pick; the board had better options right there. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick197
Rnd6
Miles Frazier
Miles Frazier at the 197th pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick209
Rnd6
Jonah Monheim
Taking Jonah Monheim in pick 209 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick211
Rnd6
Lathan Ransom
A safety of that caliber at slot 211 is the definition of value, full stop. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick233
Rnd7
Jaishawn Barham
Jaishawn Barham in No. 233 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick239
Rnd7
Garrett Dellinger
They paid sticker price for Garrett Dellinger in pick No. 239, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
