Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in the Round 7 slot: the Buccaneers steal Singer and grade out a B.

When a board-topper like Dorian Singer slides to pick 240, you do not overthink it, and the Buccaneers did not.

Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 JC Latham
In the 19th overall pick they get an anchor for the offensive line. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick51 Rnd2 Jonah Elliss
No edge and no loss on Jonah Elliss in Round 2, Pick 19; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick83 Rnd3 Donovan Edwards
They took Donovan Edwards at par in pick 83, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick119 Rnd4 Cam Hart
Nice patience on Cam Hart, who had no business lasting to the Round 4 slot. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick197 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Good price on Joe Milton III in the 197th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick220 Rnd6 Duce Chestnut
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Duce Chestnut at No. 220. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick240 Rnd7 Dorian Singer
Dorian Singer at slot 240 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The roster fit checks out.
