Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in pick 119 lands the Buccaneers a B-, Carter and all.

You could see the war room lean forward. Barrett Carter at Round 4, Pick 18 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

Every board in the league had Griffith lower, and that gap is the story. They will answer for taking linebacker early while tight end, edge rusher and other spots went begging. A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with interior defensive lineman chief among the fixes.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Shavon Revel Jr.
In pick 19 they get a sticky cover corner, even if it was a touch early. A real need, handled.
Pick53 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker in the 53rd overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick84 Rnd3 Tai Felton
They paid sticker price for Tai Felton in the Round 3 slot, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick119 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
A curious use of pick No. 119. Tight end, edge rusher and other spots needed the pick; a linebacker in Barrett Carter did not.
Pick156 Rnd5 Addison West
A big swing on Addison West at No. 156, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick235 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith at Round 7, Pick 19 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
