FutureB-
The Buccaneers lost the trade table, and the D- tells the story. Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Buccaneers spent pick 217 on Nathaniel Watson, a name the board had a full 63 spots lower. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D-.
Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.
If one pick saves this weekend, it is Benson.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, interior defensive lineman very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In pick 19 they get a cornerstone up front at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36
Rnd2
Nate Wiggins
Nate Wiggins at slot 36 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick51
Rnd2
Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan in the 51st overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick83
Rnd3
Quinyon Mitchell
Quinyon Mitchell at the Round 3 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick100
Rnd3
Trey Benson
Circle this one: Trey Benson at pick No. 100 is a fall that decides a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick141
Rnd5
Audric Estime
They barely believed it either: Audric Estime still on the board at the 141st pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick169
Rnd5
Jonah Monheim
Steal is underselling it; Jonah Monheim at the 169th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick182
Rnd6
Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at pick 182 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick189
Rnd6
Joe Milton III
A market-rate quarterback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Joe Milton III. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick197
Rnd6
Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson in Round 6, Pick 22 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick217
Rnd6
Nathaniel Watson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Nathaniel Watson this early at slot 217. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick219
Rnd6
Justin Eboigbe
This one needs a full-page explanation: Justin Eboigbe in the Round 6 slot, miles early. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick232
Rnd7
Jason Henderson
Jason Henderson at pick No. 232 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
