Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB+ FutureB-
The Buccaneers drew a line under the quarterback search with Milroe: B.

The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Buccaneers spent their marquee pick on Jalen Milroe, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

If Kent pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Jalen Milroe
In Round 1, Pick 22 they get their guy under center for the next decade. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick52 Rnd2 Thor Griffith
A clean, defensible pick in the 52nd overall pick with a little surplus value in Thor Griffith. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick93 Rnd3 Moose Muhammad III
Moose Muhammad III slipping to No. 93 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick98 Rnd4 Jasheen Davis
A reach for Jasheen Davis in the Round 4 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. The roster fit checks out.
Pick116 Rnd4 Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton at the 116th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick125 Rnd4 Jonathan Mendoza
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jonathan Mendoza this early at pick No. 125. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick130 Rnd5 Sebastian Castro
They paid sticker price for Sebastian Castro in pick 130, and that is fine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick148 Rnd5 Eugene Asante
A straight-up fair deal on Eugene Asante at slot 148, value and slot in agreement. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick168 Rnd6 Chidozie Nwankwo
Chidozie Nwankwo in the 168th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick180 Rnd6 Donte Kent
They reached into another round for Donte Kent, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
