51 DRAFTING FOR THEBuccaneers

Best value of the weekend goes to the Buccaneers for Gillotte: B. Call it larceny. Ashton Gillotte sat on the board until the Round 5 slot, and the Buccaneers did not need to be asked twice.
The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The cost of the Grant reach is exactly the players who went right after him.
Interior defensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.
Pick Analysis
Pick13
Rnd1
Kenneth Grant
In pick 13 they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick45
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
A reasonable price with a little left over, Tyler Booker in slot 45. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick77
Rnd3
Ashton Jeanty
Steal is underselling it; Ashton Jeanty at Round 3, Pick 13 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick109
Rnd4
Dillon Gabriel
The board fumbled Dillon Gabriel all the way to the Round 4 slot, and they scooped it up. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick141
Rnd5
Ashton Gillotte
They barely believed it either: Ashton Gillotte still on the board at pick No. 141. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick205
Rnd7
Bryce Foster
They will replay Bryce Foster at No. 205 for years; that is how good the value is. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
