Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Buccaneers: B-.

The Buccaneers clearly saw something nobody else did in Jehiem Oatis, taking him 32 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain. That Little Jr. pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 PJ Williams
In pick No. 15 they get a blindside protector, even if it was a touch early. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 A'Mauri Washington
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and A'Mauri Washington at pick 46 is the proof. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick77 Rnd3 DJ Lagway
They talked themselves into DJ Lagway at the 77th overall pick, and the board did not agree. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick116 Rnd4 Earl Little Jr.
A quiet steal in the 116th pick: Earl Little Jr. for less than the market said. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick153 Rnd5 Kayin Lee
Kayin Lee in No. 153 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick193 Rnd6 Jehiem Oatis
Jehiem Oatis in slot 193 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick229 Rnd7 Isaac Brown
A reach on Isaac Brown in the Round 7 slot; the board had better options right there. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
