Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Buccaneers let Williams fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Savion Williams, the No. 92 name on the board, stolen at No. 121.

They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. If Kiser pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In Round 1, Pick 19 they get a sticky cover corner at fair value.
Pick53 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
Donovan Ezeiruaku in slot 53 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick84 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
A straight-up fair deal on Andrew Mukuba at No. 84, value and slot in agreement. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick121 Rnd4 Savion Williams
Savion Williams in the Round 4 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick157 Rnd5 Jack Kiser
A big swing on Jack Kiser at the 157th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick235 Rnd7 Jordan Hancock
Taking Jordan Hancock in pick 235 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
