Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Buccaneers.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Thor Griffith in Round 7, Pick 25, a good 55 spots before the room expected him.

They will answer for taking linebacker early while tight end, edge rusher and other spots went begging. That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In the 25th pick they get a three-down second-level presence. More want than need.
Pick53 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
A curious use of pick No. 53. Tight end, edge rusher and other spots needed the pick; a linebacker in Jihaad Campbell did not.
Pick83 Rnd3 Zy Alexander
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Zy Alexander at the Round 3 slot. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick84 Rnd3 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson in the 84th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick89 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
They left a pile of value on the table to take Darius Alexander this early at pick 89. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick120 Rnd4 Jaylin Noel
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Jaylin Noel in Round 4, Pick 19, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick158 Rnd5 Cobee Bryant
A conviction pick on Cobee Bryant at the Round 5 slot that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick237 Rnd7 Shemar James
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Shemar James in the 237th pick. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick243 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
They reached into another round for Thor Griffith, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
