Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB+ FutureB
Best value of the weekend goes to the Buccaneers for Thomas: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Nathan Thomas tumbling to the Buccaneers in the Round 7 slot is a gift they did not have to think twice about. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

The cost of the Wilson reach is exactly the players who went right after him. That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick57 Rnd2 Christian Haynes
By-the-book stuff, Christian Haynes at No. 57 squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick65 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at slot 65 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick77 Rnd3 Max Melton
Nice patience on Max Melton, who had no business lasting to the Round 3 slot. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick93 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
Fair-plus on Calen Bullock, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick101 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
They reached into another round for Johnny Wilson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick125 Rnd4 Jalyx Hunt
They paid sticker price for Jalyx Hunt in the 125th pick, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick130 Rnd4 Bucky Irving
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Bucky Irving. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick142 Rnd5 Caedan Wallace
Caedan Wallace at pick No. 142 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick208 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Taking Dwight McGlothern in the 208th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. It fills a real need, too.
Pick220 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Good price on Joe Milton III in pick 220, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick226 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Somehow Edefuan Ulofoshio was still sitting there in Round 7, Pick 6, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick240 Rnd7 Nathan Thomas
You do not let an offensive lineman like Nathan Thomas reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick246 Rnd7 Garret Greenfield
Garret Greenfield at pick No. 246 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
