Draft Grade — Buccaneers

NeedB-

FutureB-
The Buccaneers turned the phones into found money: B. They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Thor Griffith, 99 picks early at the Round 6 slot.
The Williams pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.
The Buccaneers paired the rookies with proven help, Charvarius Ward leading the way.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick37
Rnd2
Benjamin Morrison
No edge and no loss on Benjamin Morrison in the 37th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick41
Rnd2
Grey Zabel
A slide stopped in pick 41, with Grey Zabel worth more than the price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick53
Rnd2
Tre Harris
Tre Harris in No. 53 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick66
Rnd3
Quinn Ewers
Quinn Ewers at the 66th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick73
Rnd3
Jordan Burch
They reached into another round for Jordan Burch, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick75
Rnd3
Demetrius Knight Jr.
A quiet steal in Round 3, Pick 11: Demetrius Knight Jr. for less than the market said. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick81
Rnd3
Chris Paul Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Chris Paul Jr. at the 81st overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick95
Rnd3
Sebastian Castro
They took Sebastian Castro at par in pick No. 95, which is nothing to complain about. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick104
Rnd4
Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in pick 104 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick112
Rnd4
O'Donnell Fortune
The board had cheaper options than O'Donnell Fortune at No. 112, and it noticed. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick129
Rnd4
David Walker
David Walker at the 129th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
Pick134
Rnd4
Cobee Bryant
A real head-scratcher, Cobee Bryant in Round 4, Pick 33 is miles ahead of his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick144
Rnd5
Cody Simon
They let Cody Simon come to them and pounced at the Round 5 slot. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick155
Rnd5
Savion Williams
They will replay Savion Williams at slot 155 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick158
Rnd5
Logan Brown
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Logan Brown. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick162
Rnd5
Oluwafemi Oladejo
This one needs a full-page explanation: Oluwafemi Oladejo in pick 162, miles early. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick174
Rnd5
Clay Webb
Clay Webb at the 174th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick182
Rnd6
Cam Jackson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Cam Jackson this early at No. 182. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick195
Rnd6
Luke Lachey
They paid sticker price for Luke Lachey in Round 6, Pick 17, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick211
Rnd6
Thor Griffith
Value said wait; Thor Griffith in pick No. 211 says they were not listening. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick212
Rnd6
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the Round 6 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The roster fit checks out.
Pick214
Rnd6
Miles Frazier
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Miles Frazier well ahead of where he belonged. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick221
Rnd7
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson at pick No. 221 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick228
Rnd7
Jaishawn Barham
A premium they did not need to pay, Jaishawn Barham a notch or two before his time. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick236
Rnd7
Jordan Hancock
A safety of that caliber at the Round 7 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick237
Rnd7
Joey Slackman
They talked themselves into Joey Slackman at slot 237, and the board did not agree. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
