NeedB-
TradesA
FutureB
Good, not great, for the Buccaneers: B. Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Oluwafemi Oladejo at No. 158 is 79 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline.
Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Edwards. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.
The roster is better shaped than it was, with interior defensive lineman chief among the fixes.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick Analysis
Pick45
Rnd2
Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at the Round 2 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick53
Rnd2
Donovan Ezeiruaku
A premium they did not need to pay, Donovan Ezeiruaku a notch or two before his time. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick69
Rnd3
Darien Porter
Darien Porter in Round 3, Pick 5 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick77
Rnd3
Deone Walker
Nice patience on Deone Walker, who had no business lasting to the 77th overall pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick81
Rnd3
Carson Schwesinger
No edge and no loss on Carson Schwesinger in pick 81; it is a wash and a sensible one. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick84
Rnd3
Sebastian Castro
No drama and no debate, Sebastian Castro went about where he belonged in pick No. 84. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick95
Rnd3
Charles Grant
They took Charles Grant at par in No. 95, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick108
Rnd4
Rylie Mills
They reached a country mile for Rylie Mills at the 108th overall pick, and the board is aghast. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick117
Rnd4
Tyler Baron
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tyler Baron this early at slot 117. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick121
Rnd4
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the Round 4 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick132
Rnd4
Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa in pick No. 132 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick144
Rnd5
Cobee Bryant
They reached into another round for Cobee Bryant, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick157
Rnd5
Nohl Williams
They talked themselves into Nohl Williams at the 157th pick, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick158
Rnd5
Oluwafemi Oladejo
A big swing on Oluwafemi Oladejo at Round 5, Pick 20, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick180
Rnd6
Miles Frazier
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Miles Frazier. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick181
Rnd6
Tyler Shough
Steal is underselling it; Tyler Shough at pick 181 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick193
Rnd6
Carson Vinson
A real head-scratcher, Carson Vinson in Round 6, Pick 17 is miles ahead of his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick199
Rnd6
Ja'Corey Brooks
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Ja'Corey Brooks well ahead of where he belonged. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick209
Rnd6
Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at No. 209 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick213
Rnd6
Luke Lachey
They robbed the room for Luke Lachey here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick215
Rnd6
Craig Woodson
A quiet steal in pick No. 215: Craig Woodson for less than the market said. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick217
Rnd7
Jonas Sanker
Fair-plus on Jonas Sanker, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick220
Rnd7
Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith in pick 220 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick222
Rnd7
Clay Webb
Value said wait; Clay Webb in the Round 7 slot says they were not listening. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick235
Rnd7
Nick Martin
Nick Martin at the 235th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick251
Rnd7
Donovan Edwards
Donovan Edwards in Round 7, Pick 35 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
