Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B+
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Buccaneers turned the phones into found money: B+.

Thirty-one other rooms let Elijah Jones slide, and the Buccaneers were the ones holding the card at pick 223. Highway robbery.

They will need Tagovailoa to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Jordan Morgan
In Round 1, Pick 32 they get a building block for the line. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick70 Rnd3 Kamren Kinchens
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kamren Kinchens. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick89 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
A premium they did not need to pay, Christian Mahogany a notch or two before his time. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick126 Rnd4 Dylan Laube
Dylan Laube in the Round 4 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick203 Rnd6 Javontae Jean-Baptiste
This one needs a full-page explanation: Javontae Jean-Baptiste in slot 203, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick223 Rnd7 Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones at pick No. 223 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick244 Rnd7 Taulia Tagovailoa
Taulia Tagovailoa at pick 244 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick255 Rnd7 KT Leveston
KT Leveston slipping to Round 7, Pick 35 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
