Overall C

ValueD- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-

Some hits, some head-scratchers, and a C for the Buccaneers.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Gabe Jacas at pick 46, a reach of 50 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. Call it a C and check back in two years.

Landing Lawson that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. 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.

So much rides on Akheem Mesidor that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick15 Rnd1 Akheem Mesidor

In the 15th pick they get a disruptor off the edge, a steep price for the projection. A clean fit for the roster.

Pick46 Rnd2 Gabe Jacas

Value said wait; Gabe Jacas in Round 2, Pick 14 says they were not listening. It patches a soft spot without any drama.

Pick77 Rnd3 Deontae Lawson

Deontae Lawson at the 77th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.

Pick116 Rnd4 Jack Endries

A tidy bit of business in No. 116, where Jack Endries graded well above the range. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.

Pick153 Rnd5 Trey Moore

A big swing on Trey Moore at pick 153, well ahead of any board in the building. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
