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

The Buccaneers clearly saw something nobody else did in Richard Jibunor, taking him 41 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. No fireworks, but a solid B.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Buccaneers clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick57 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie at No. 57 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick89 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
No edge and no loss on Khyree Jackson in pick No. 89; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick92 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
By-the-book stuff, Brenden Rice at the 92nd pick squarely in line with his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick93 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
Christian Mahogany in Round 3, Pick 30 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick107 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
They paid sticker price for Cedric Gray in slot 107, and that is fine. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick125 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Mohamed Kamara. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick130 Rnd4 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick at the 130th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick137 Rnd5 Dwight McGlothern
They talked themselves into Dwight McGlothern at slot 137, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jaylen Harrell
Jaylen Harrell at pick 174 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The roster fit checks out.
Pick180 Rnd6 Tanor Bortolini
They paid a round early for Tanor Bortolini in Round 6, Pick 5, more than the board wanted. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick216 Rnd6 Garret Greenfield
Garret Greenfield at the Round 6 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick220 Rnd6 Edefuan Ulofoshio
A reach on Edefuan Ulofoshio in the 220th overall pick; the board had better options right there. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick231 Rnd7 Richard Jibunor
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Richard Jibunor well ahead of where he belonged. The roster logic is harder to follow.
Pick233 Rnd7 Tyrice Knight
A real head-scratcher, Tyrice Knight in No. 233 is miles ahead of his ranking. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick246 Rnd7 Jalen Sundell
No drama and no debate, Jalen Sundell went about where he belonged in pick No. 246. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
