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

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Cam Skattebo, the No. 99 name on the board, stolen at Round 5, Pick 21. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

If Dellinger pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with interior defensive lineman chief among the fixes. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In the 22nd pick they get an island corner, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick53 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant at slot 53 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick84 Rnd3 Kevin Winston Jr.
They went early on Kevin Winston Jr. in No. 84, and the value did not follow. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick86 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
They will replay Jayden Higgins at pick No. 86 for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick121 Rnd4 Jacob Parrish
Jacob Parrish in the 121st overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick157 Rnd5 Ty Robinson
They paid sticker price for Ty Robinson in Round 5, Pick 19, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick159 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
They robbed the room for Cam Skattebo here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick235 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
A reach on Teddye Buchanan in the Round 7 slot; the board had better options right there. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick237 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
A big swing on Garrett Dellinger at Round 7, Pick 21, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
