Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Buccaneers a B-.

Every other box got a look, but interior defensive lineman did not. The Buccaneers will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Joly. Mesidor has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Peter Woods
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get a premier pass rusher. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 Akheem Mesidor
A reach for Akheem Mesidor in pick No. 46; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick77 Rnd3 Josiah Trotter
Josiah Trotter slipping to pick 77 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick116 Rnd4 Justin Joly
Justin Joly at the 116th overall pick is money in the bank, a tight end taken below his worth. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick153 Rnd5 Kevin Coleman Jr.
Kevin Coleman Jr. in slot 153 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It fills a real need, too.
Pick193 Rnd6 Isaiah Nwokobia
The board had Isaiah Nwokobia higher than the Round 6 slot, and the safety fell to them anyway. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick229 Rnd7 Riley Mahlman
A clean, defensible pick in the 229th pick with a little surplus value in Riley Mahlman. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
