Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B
ValueC NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Buccaneers fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Solomon Tuliaupupu at No. 200, a reach of 67 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want. They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 A.J. Harris
In the Round 1 slot they get a press-man option on the boundary, even if it was a touch early. A real need, handled.
Pick54 Rnd2 Suntarine Perkins
They paid up for Suntarine Perkins at No. 54 when waiting would have done the job. It fills a real need, too.
Pick122 Rnd4 Jyaire Hill
Jyaire Hill in Round 4, Pick 20 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick161 Rnd5 Khalil Barnes
Khalil Barnes at pick No. 161 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick200 Rnd6 Solomon Tuliaupupu
They reached a country mile for Solomon Tuliaupupu at slot 200, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick235 Rnd7 Michael Harris
Michael Harris at the 235th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
