The Buccaneers cashed the board's mistake on Cooper: C. The Buccaneers spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Edgerrin Cooper, the No. 48 name on the board, in Round 3, Pick 29. Fine in stretches, shaky in others: a C.
They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.
The Culp pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.
Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.
Pick Analysis
Pick10
Rnd1
Jared Verse
In No. 10 they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick57
Rnd2
Jackson Powers-Johnson
They robbed the room for Jackson Powers-Johnson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick92
Rnd3
Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper in the Round 3 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick99
Rnd3
Kamren Kinchens
Kamren Kinchens in pick No. 99 is fair value, right on his grade. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick125
Rnd4
Bucky Irving
Bucky Irving in the 125th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick177
Rnd6
Kalen King
A premium they did not need to pay, Kalen King a notch or two before his time. The roster fit checks out.
Pick203
Rnd6
Trey Taylor
Trey Taylor in slot 203 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick220
Rnd6
Edefuan Ulofoshio
A linebacker of that caliber at Round 6, Pick 45 is the definition of value, full stop. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick246
Rnd7
Devin Culp
Devin Culp at the 246th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
