Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Buccaneers won the night they stopped Polk from sliding. Grade: B-.

Everything else got attention, and interior defensive lineman got none. That is a strange way for the Buccaneers to leave a draft. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. If Amegadjie pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In the Round 1 slot they get juice off the edge. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
A premium they did not need to pay, Kiran Amegadjie a notch or two before his time. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick89 Rnd3 Blake Corum
Nothing to complain about; Blake Corum went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick92 Rnd3 Ja'Lynn Polk
Circle this one: Ja'Lynn Polk at pick No. 92 is a fall that decides a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick125 Rnd4 James Williams
James Williams in slot 125 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
