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

Whoever sat across the table from the Buccaneers should ask for a receipt. They cleaned the room out, prying loose far more value than they gave up, and it was the quiet MVP of their weekend. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

Louis has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up.

The Louis pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at interior defensive lineman, edge rusher and other spots. The Brailsford value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 A.J. Harris
In pick No. 25 they get a ballhawk on the outside. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick86 Rnd3 Sonny Styles
They did well to land Sonny Styles in pick 86, just ahead of his grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick89 Rnd3 Kenyon Sadiq
Kenyon Sadiq in Round 3, Pick 25 is fair value, right on his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick122 Rnd4 Parker Brailsford
Parker Brailsford slipping to the Round 4 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick125 Rnd4 Kyle Louis
Of all the spots to shop, they chose linebacker. Kyle Louis in the 125th overall pick leaves interior defensive lineman, edge rusher and other spots for later.
Pick161 Rnd5 Taylen Green
A slide stopped in the 161st pick, with Taylen Green worth more than the price. The roster fit checks out.
Pick235 Rnd7 Tosh Baker
They went early on Tosh Baker in No. 235, and the value did not follow. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
