Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Buccaneers for Hardy: B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Daequan Hardy, the No. 225 name on the board, stolen at the Round 7 slot.

They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the Round 1 slot they get an island corner. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Brandon Dorlus
No edge and no loss on Brandon Dorlus in Round 2, Pick 26; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick89 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Value with a capital V on Junior Colson in the 89th pick, a genuine coup. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick126 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
A reasonable price with a little left over, Kris Abrams-Draine in slot 126. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick204 Rnd6 Miyan Williams
A straight-up fair deal on Miyan Williams at the 204th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick220 Rnd6 Omar Speights
Omar Speights at No. 220 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick247 Rnd7 Daequan Hardy
The board fumbled Daequan Hardy all the way to pick No. 247, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
