Good, not great, for the Buccaneers: B-.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Buccaneers would have aced it. Elijah Roberts at slot 120 is 52 spots clear of where he belonged.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. That Sanker pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

Tight end was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In slot 19 they get a problem off the edge. A real need, handled.
Pick53 Rnd2 Josaiah Stewart
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Josaiah Stewart. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick84 Rnd3 Mason Taylor
Fair-plus on Mason Taylor, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick120 Rnd4 Elijah Roberts
A wild overpay on Elijah Roberts in the Round 4 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick158 Rnd5 Dorian Strong
No edge and no loss on Dorian Strong in pick 158; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick237 Rnd7 Jonas Sanker
You do not let a safety like Jonas Sanker reach No. 237 and blink. They did not. It adds depth where they could use a little.
