Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Buccaneers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The needs board said one thing and the Buccaneers did another, using slot 116 on Jaishawn Barham while offensive lineman, tight end and other spots waited. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through offensive lineman. The Uiagalelei pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

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

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Matayo Uiagalelei
In the 16th overall pick they get a double-digit-sack hope, reach and all. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick47 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles slid further than he should have, and the Round 2 slot is lovely value for the linebacker. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick78 Rnd3 Malik Muhammad
They took Malik Muhammad at par in Round 3, Pick 14, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jaishawn Barham
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending slot 116 on Jaishawn Barham with offensive lineman, tight end and other spots unsolved.
Pick154 Rnd5 DeMonte Capehart
No drama and no debate, DeMonte Capehart went about where he belonged in No. 154. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick195 Rnd6 Le'Veon Moss
Le'Veon Moss in the 195th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick232 Rnd7 Khalil Barnes
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Khalil Barnes. A minor need, but a need all the same.
