Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Buccaneers left with their quarterback, and a B- to match.

After circling the position for what felt like forever, the Buccaneers committed. C.J. Carr is the quarterback now, and the roster gets built to his timeline.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. Carr has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 C.J. Carr
In pick 15 they get a long-term answer under center, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
Pick46 Rnd2 Boo Carter
Boo Carter at the Round 2 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick77 Rnd3 Greg Johnson
Greg Johnson at Round 3, Pick 13 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick116 Rnd4 Duce Robinson
Nothing to complain about; Duce Robinson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick153 Rnd5 CJ Baxter
A tidy little value on CJ Baxter in the 153rd overall pick, a step better than break-even. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick193 Rnd6 Jordan Castell
They took Jordan Castell at par in No. 193, which is nothing to complain about. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick229 Rnd7 Da'Shawn Womack
No edge and no loss on Da'Shawn Womack in slot 229; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
