Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall C+
ValueD+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A weekend that raised as many questions as it answered. The Buccaneers get a C+.

The Cashius Howell selection is the head-turner. The Buccaneers reached 37 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. Call it a C+ and check back in two years.

That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

If Joshua Josephs and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Joshua Josephs
In the 22nd overall pick they get a disruptor off the edge, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
Pick54 Rnd2 Cashius Howell
This one needs a full-page explanation: Cashius Howell in Round 2, Pick 22, miles early. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick86 Rnd3 Kenyon Sadiq
A premium they did not need to pay, Kenyon Sadiq a notch or two before his time. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick122 Rnd4 Evan Stewart
Evan Stewart in slot 122 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick161 Rnd5 Tree Babalade
A clean, defensible pick in the 161st pick with a little surplus value in Tree Babalade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick200 Rnd6 Kayin Lee
They took Kayin Lee at par in pick 200, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick235 Rnd7 Isaiah Augustave
They paid a round early for Isaiah Augustave in No. 235, more than the board wanted. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
