Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Buccaneers turned the phones into found money: B.

The war room fell hard for JT Daniels, and it showed at Round 7, Pick 4: 60 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. Landing Simpson that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. The Buccaneers indulged a want in Solomon while a need in interior defensive lineman and wide receiver stayed open.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick36 Rnd2 Quinyon Mitchell
Quinyon Mitchell in the 36th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick37 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan in pick 37 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick55 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson in Round 2, Pick 23 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick68 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson in No. 68 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick94 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
A reach for Jaden Hicks in the 94th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick98 Rnd3 Javon Solomon
A want over a need in pick No. 98: Javon Solomon adds an OLB-EDGE while interior defensive lineman and wide receiver keeps waiting.
Pick100 Rnd3 Darius Robinson
They reached a country mile for Darius Robinson at the 100th pick, and the board is aghast. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick102 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
They left a pile of value on the table to take Braelon Allen this early at slot 102. The roster fit checks out.
Pick119 Rnd4 Javon Foster
They took Javon Foster at par in pick 119, which is nothing to complain about. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jaylin Simpson at No. 164. It fills a real need, too.
Pick169 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo slipping to pick No. 169 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick185 Rnd6 Erick All
Erick All at the Round 6 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick197 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Value said wait; Dwight McGlothern in the 197th overall pick says they were not listening. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick220 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson at Round 6, Pick 45 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick224 Rnd7 JT Daniels
A big swing on JT Daniels at Round 7, Pick 4, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick240 Rnd7 Carson Steele
A premium they did not need to pay, Carson Steele a notch or two before his time. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
