Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesF FutureB-
The Buccaneers got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D-.

The Buccaneers looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Jamari Lyons at No. 235 regardless, 33 picks early. The board pushed back all weekend, and the D- is the result.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it.

They will answer for taking linebacker early while tight end and running back went begging. That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, tight end very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Anthony Hill Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece. More want than need.
Pick47 Rnd2 Dani Dennis-Sutton
A reasonable price with a little left over, Dani Dennis-Sutton in Round 2, Pick 15. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick54 Rnd2 Daylen Everette
Daylen Everette in slot 54 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick79 Rnd3 Sonny Styles
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending the 79th pick on Sonny Styles with tight end and running back unsolved.
Pick84 Rnd3 Caleb Tiernan
They paid sticker price for Caleb Tiernan in pick No. 84, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick115 Rnd4 Domani Jackson
They read the board right and Domani Jackson was the payoff at the 115th overall pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick122 Rnd4 Austin Romaine
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went linebacker with Austin Romaine while clear needs at tight end and running back sat open.
Pick154 Rnd5 Taylen Green
Nothing to complain about; Taylen Green went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick161 Rnd5 Dane Key
Dane Key at pick No. 161 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick200 Rnd6 Barion Brown
Barion Brown in the 200th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick235 Rnd7 Jamari Lyons
Jamari Lyons at Round 7, Pick 19 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
