Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureC+
Nobody dealt better than the Buccaneers this weekend: B.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Buccaneers, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend.

The cost of the Rodriguez reach is exactly the players who went right after him. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Golday. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.

Adding Maxx Crosby by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick46 Rnd2 Jacob Rodriguez
A wild overpay on Jacob Rodriguez in pick No. 46, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick77 Rnd3 Jake Golday
Circle this one: Jake Golday at the Round 3 slot is a fall that decides a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick116 Rnd4 De'Zhaun Stribling
Nothing to complain about; De'Zhaun Stribling went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick155 Rnd5 Hezekiah Masses
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Hezekiah Masses at the 155th overall pick is the proof. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick195 Rnd6 Keagen Trost
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Keagen Trost at slot 195. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick229 Rnd7 Nick Barrett
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Nick Barrett. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
