Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Buccaneers kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

Hard to follow the map here. The Buccaneers bypassed edge rusher, quarterback and other spots to take Jacob Rodriguez at pick No. 77, a spot they had covered.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Davis. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In No. 15 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece, outstanding value to boot. Need was not the driver here.
Pick46 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Caleb Banks in Round 2, Pick 14 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick77 Rnd3 Jacob Rodriguez
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick 77 on Jacob Rodriguez with edge rusher, quarterback and other spots unsolved.
Pick116 Rnd4 Tacario Davis
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Tacario Davis at slot 116. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick153 Rnd5 Beau Stephens
Beau Stephens at the 153rd overall pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick193 Rnd6 Dae'Quan Wright
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Dae'Quan Wright in the Round 6 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick229 Rnd7 Jalen Huskey
Jalen Huskey at No. 229 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
