Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall
D+
ValueB-
NeedB
TradesF
FutureB-
The Buccaneers bled value on every deal, hence the D+. The Buccaneers spent real capital to be 110 picks early on Gentry Williams, and the board is going to hold them to it. The math is unkind, and the D+ follows.
Getting Bassa where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back.
The Paul Jr. pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at tight end, edge rusher and other spots. Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.
Pick Analysis
Pick11
Rnd1
Will Johnson
Will Johnson at the Round 1 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick53
Rnd2
Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at the 53rd pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick84
Rnd3
Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at Round 3, Pick 20 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick99
Rnd3
Savion Williams
Savion Williams in pick No. 99 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick120
Rnd4
Chris Paul Jr.
A surprising call. With tight end, edge rusher and other spots still to address, they spent slot 120 on Chris Paul Jr., a linebacker they were not short of.
Pick128
Rnd4
Malachi Moore
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went safety with Malachi Moore while clear needs at tight end, edge rusher and other spots sat open.
Pick136
Rnd4
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Dont'e Thornton Jr.. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick152
Rnd5
Cobee Bryant
A wild overpay on Cobee Bryant in the 152nd pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick158
Rnd5
Cam Skattebo
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Cam Skattebo in Round 5, Pick 19, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick176
Rnd5
Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim in slot 176 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick178
Rnd5
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
They talked themselves into Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson at pick No. 178, and the board did not agree. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick185
Rnd6
Gentry Williams
Gentry Williams in No. 185 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick205
Rnd6
Jamaree Caldwell
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jamaree Caldwell this early at the 205th overall pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick213
Rnd6
Miles Frazier
The board had cheaper options than Miles Frazier at pick 213, and it noticed. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick237
Rnd7
Jeffrey Bassa
A linebacker of that caliber at Round 7, Pick 19 is the definition of value, full stop. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
