Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall D+
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesF FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Buccaneers to a D+.

The Buccaneers clearly saw something nobody else did in J'Mond Tapp, taking him 38 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D+.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. The Green pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with interior defensive lineman, quarterback and other spots still on the board. That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Becker falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, interior defensive lineman very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Colin Simmons
In the Round 1 slot they get a double-digit-sack hope. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Leonard Moore
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Leonard Moore in pick No. 35. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick44 Rnd2 Trey'Dez Green
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went tight end with Trey'Dez Green while clear needs at interior defensive lineman, quarterback and other spots sat open.
Pick68 Rnd3 Charlie Becker
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Charlie Becker adds a wide receiver and leaves interior defensive lineman, quarterback and other spots untouched.
Pick69 Rnd3 Kade Pieper
The board fumbled Kade Pieper all the way to the 69th pick, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick104 Rnd4 Iapani Laloulu
A tidy little value on Iapani Laloulu in No. 104, a step better than break-even. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick111 Rnd4 Shadre Hurst
No edge and no loss on Shadre Hurst in Round 4, Pick 10; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick141 Rnd5 Tony Rojas
Nothing to complain about; Tony Rojas went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A pick in search of a role on this roster.
Pick142 Rnd5 Luke Reynolds
A reach for Luke Reynolds in pick 142; a little patience would have been rewarded. Hard to map this one onto the depth chart at all.
Pick181 Rnd6 Blake Frazier
Fair-plus on Blake Frazier, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick224 Rnd7 J'Mond Tapp
J'Mond Tapp at No. 224 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The roster fit checks out.
