Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Buccaneers kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The tape said wait; the Buccaneers did not. Cedric Gray went at pick No. 89, a good 46 picks before the board was ready.

For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Wiley steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Chris Braswell
In the 26th pick they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Cooper Beebe. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick89 Rnd3 Cedric Gray
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Cedric Gray well ahead of where he belonged. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson at the Round 4 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick204 Rnd6 Sam Hartman
A reach for Sam Hartman in No. 204; a little patience would have been rewarded. It fills a real need, too.
Pick220 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
They read the board right and Jared Wiley was the payoff at the 220th overall pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick247 Rnd7 Tatum Bethune
Tatum Bethune at the Round 7 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
