Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB
The Buccaneers won the night they stopped Thieneman from sliding. Grade: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Dillon Thieneman, pick 86, roughly 56 picks past where he belonged. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

The Payton reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In the Round 1 slot they get a ballhawk on the outside, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
Taking Jake Slaughter in No. 54 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick86 Rnd3 Dillon Thieneman
The board fumbled Dillon Thieneman all the way to pick 86, and they scooped it up. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick122 Rnd4 Patrick Payton
Patrick Payton at Round 4, Pick 20 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick161 Rnd5 Jaishawn Barham
Jaishawn Barham at pick No. 161 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick171 Rnd5 Daevin Hobbs
Daevin Hobbs at slot 171 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick235 Rnd7 Michael Harris
They talked themselves into Michael Harris at the 235th pick, and the board did not agree. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
