Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB- TradesC- FutureB+
The Buccaneers landed square in the muddy middle: C+.

The Tony Grimes selection is the head-turner. The Buccaneers reached 36 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Fifita. Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The dealing tilted against them, just enough to notice.

Tight end is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 CJ Allen
In the 31st overall pick they get a downhill thumper at linebacker, though the board says they badly overpaid. More want than need.
Pick95 Rnd3 Mikail Kamara
A wild overpay on Mikail Kamara in the 95th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It fills a real need, too.
Pick131 Rnd4 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
They barely believed it either: Emmanuel McNeil-Warren still on the board at No. 131. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick172 Rnd5 Oscar Delp
Oscar Delp at Round 5, Pick 31 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick211 Rnd6 Noah Fifita
They will replay Noah Fifita at pick No. 211 for years; that is how good the value is. The roster fit checks out.
Pick248 Rnd7 Tony Grimes
A big swing on Tony Grimes at the Round 7 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. A need, and now a little less of one.
