Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Buccaneers let Lawson fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Deontae Lawson had no business being available in the 77th overall pick, and the Buccaneers did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. The Parker reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They left with tight end solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 T.J. Parker
In the Round 1 slot they get a problem off the edge, reach and all. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 Akheem Mesidor
They paid up for Akheem Mesidor at No. 46 when waiting would have done the job. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick77 Rnd3 Deontae Lawson
They robbed the room for Deontae Lawson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jack Endries
They let Jack Endries come to them and pounced at slot 116. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick153 Rnd5 J'Mari Taylor
J'Mari Taylor at pick No. 153 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick193 Rnd6 Dane Key
Good price on Dane Key in pick 193, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick229 Rnd7 Isaac Smith
No drama and no debate, Isaac Smith went about where he belonged in the 229th overall pick. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
