Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Buccaneers: C+.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Buccaneers reached some 53 spots for Donovan Ezeiruaku, and value like that does not grow back.

That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

So much rides on Donovan Ezeiruaku that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Donovan Ezeiruaku
In slot 19 they get a disruptor off the edge, though the board says they badly overpaid.
Pick53 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Steal is underselling it; Malaki Starks at No. 53 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick84 Rnd3 Trey Amos
Circle this one: Trey Amos at Round 3, Pick 20 is a fall that decides a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick120 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson in the Round 4 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick158 Rnd5 Willie Lampkin
Willie Lampkin at pick No. 158 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick237 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
Cam Jackson in pick 237 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
