Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Buccaneers: B.

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. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

That is an edge rusher worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. On the needs board they went 2 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most. The back end got a real overhaul.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In slot 19 they get a press-man option on the boundary at fair value.
Pick53 Rnd2 Landon Jackson
Landon Jackson is a better player than the Round 2 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick84 Rnd3 Chris Paul Jr.
Good price on Chris Paul Jr. in pick No. 84, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
