Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Buccaneers for Thornton Jr.: B-.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Dont'e Thornton Jr. got past him. The Buccaneers do not have to explain a thing at the 237th overall pick. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

It is not that Bassa is a bad player; it is that the Buccaneers had louder needs to answer first. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Bassa has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Mike Green
In pick 19 they get a double-digit-sack hope, even if it was a touch early. A real need, handled.
Pick53 Rnd2 Trey Amos
Fair-plus on Trey Amos, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick84 Rnd3 Danny Stutsman
No edge and no loss on Danny Stutsman in the 84th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick120 Rnd4 Jeffrey Bassa
They bypassed pressing needs at interior defensive lineman, offensive lineman and other spots to take Jeffrey Bassa, a linebacker that was not the priority.
Pick158 Rnd5 Jordan James
They will replay Jordan James at the Round 5 slot for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick237 Rnd7 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the 237th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A need, and now a little less of one.
