Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall
C+

NeedB-

FutureB-
The Buccaneers landed square in the muddy middle: C+. The one they had to fix is still broken. The Buccaneers left interior defensive lineman untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. The final tally is a middling C+.
Every board in the league had Campbell lower, and that gap is the story. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.
If Jihaad Campbell and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
Jihaad Campbell
In pick 19 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece, even if it was a touch early. Need was not the driver here.
Pick53
Rnd2
Azareye'h Thomas
They paid sticker price for Azareye'h Thomas in Round 2, Pick 21, and that is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
