FutureB-
Nobody dealt better than the Buccaneers this weekend: B. You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Buccaneers did exactly that with J.J. Weaver in slot 237. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.
Moore at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. It is not that Perkins Jr. is a bad player; it is that the Buccaneers had louder needs to answer first.
They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick22
Rnd1
Ozzy Trapilo
In Round 1, Pick 22 they get protection for the quarterback, a steep price for the projection. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick71
Rnd3
Kenneth Grant
Nothing to complain about; Kenneth Grant went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick81
Rnd3
Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker at pick No. 81 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick87
Rnd3
Rylie Mills
A real head-scratcher, Rylie Mills in pick 87 is miles ahead of his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick92
Rnd3
Malachi Moore
A safety of that caliber at No. 92 is the definition of value, full stop. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick107
Rnd4
Jack Bech
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jack Bech this early at slot 107. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick123
Rnd4
Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander at the 123rd overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick128
Rnd4
Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins in No. 128 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick134
Rnd4
Harold Perkins Jr.
A surprising call. With quarterback and running back still to address, they spent pick No. 134 on Harold Perkins Jr., a linebacker they were not short of.
Pick153
Rnd5
Barion Brown
They talked themselves into Barion Brown at the 153rd pick, and the board did not agree. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick154
Rnd5
Cody Simon
Cody Simon at the Round 5 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick199
Rnd6
Quincy Riley
They paid up for Quincy Riley at slot 199 when waiting would have done the job. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick219
Rnd7
Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim at pick 219 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick233
Rnd7
Kevin Winston Jr.
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Kevin Winston Jr. in Round 7, Pick 19, plain and simple. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick237
Rnd7
J.J. Weaver
Value said wait; J.J. Weaver in the 237th overall pick says they were not listening. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick238
Rnd7
Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey at pick 238 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick242
Rnd7
Hunter Wohler
Hunter Wohler in slot 242 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
