Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB- TradesF FutureB-
The Buccaneers got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D-.

The war room fell hard for Teddye Buchanan, and it showed at the 212th pick: 36 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. The math is unkind, and the D- follows.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Shough.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, interior defensive lineman very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
In slot 19 they get a go-to option on the outside. A real need, handled.
Pick53 Rnd2 Josaiah Stewart
They paid sticker price for Josaiah Stewart in the Round 2 slot, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick84 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger at the 84th pick is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick121 Rnd4 Cobee Bryant
No drama and no debate, Cobee Bryant went about where he belonged in the 121st overall pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick157 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
They barely believed it either: Tyler Shough still on the board at pick 157. It fills a real need, too.
Pick183 Rnd6 Connor Colby
Connor Colby in pick No. 183 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick212 Rnd6 Teddye Buchanan
They reached a country mile for Teddye Buchanan at the Round 6 slot, and the board is aghast. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick235 Rnd7 Jeremy Crawshaw
They paid up for Jeremy Crawshaw at the 235th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
