FutureF
The Buccaneers got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D+. The Brady Cook pick is the one that will follow the Buccaneers into the fall. They took him 54 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. Put together, it is a D+.
They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. For all the activity, offensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. They banked enough surplus on Henderson to cover a lot of smaller sins.
Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and offensive lineman is still a hole.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
Jahdae Barron
In No. 19 they get a sticky cover corner at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick39
Rnd2
Donovan Ezeiruaku
A reach on Donovan Ezeiruaku in the 39th overall pick; the board had better options right there. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick41
Rnd2
Trey Amos
Trey Amos in pick No. 41 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick53
Rnd2
Alfred Collins
They paid sticker price for Alfred Collins in pick 53, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick72
Rnd3
TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson at slot 72 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick84
Rnd3
Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor at the Round 3 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick121
Rnd4
Cody Simon
Cody Simon at pick No. 121 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick157
Rnd5
Pat Bryant
Pat Bryant in slot 157 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick235
Rnd7
Brady Cook
Brady Cook in the 235th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
