Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the 54th pick lands the Buccaneers a B, Hill Jr. and all.

You build a draft on nights like this. Anthony Hill Jr. had no business being available in pick No. 54, and the Buccaneers did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. Tight end is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In the 22nd overall pick they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Anthony Hill Jr.
Anthony Hill Jr. at pick 54 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick86 Rnd3 Cashius Howell
No edge and no loss on Cashius Howell in No. 86; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick122 Rnd4 Kaytron Allen
Somehow Kaytron Allen was still sitting there in slot 122, and they pounced on premier running back value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick161 Rnd5 Taylen Green
Nice patience on Taylen Green, who had no business lasting to the Round 5 slot. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick200 Rnd6 Xavier Nwankpa
They barely believed it either: Xavier Nwankpa still on the board at the 200th pick. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick235 Rnd7 Trey Leckner
Trey Leckner in pick No. 235 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
