Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B
ValueC NeedB- TradesA FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Buccaneers: B.

The Buccaneers put a flag in the ground for Thor Griffith, 121 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

The Moore pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick34 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
They went early on Jonah Savaiinaea in the 34th pick, and the value did not follow. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick49 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
By-the-book stuff, Donovan Ezeiruaku at pick 49 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick62 Rnd2 Darien Porter
A reach for Darien Porter in the 62nd overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick68 Rnd3 Chris Paul Jr.
Chris Paul Jr. at Round 3, Pick 4 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick80 Rnd3 Deone Walker
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Deone Walker. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick99 Rnd3 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They talked themselves into Dont'e Thornton Jr. at slot 99, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick108 Rnd4 Cobee Bryant
A reach on Cobee Bryant in pick 108; the board had better options right there. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick117 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
A slide stopped in slot 117, with Cam Skattebo worth more than the price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick121 Rnd4 Nohl Williams
Nohl Williams at Round 4, Pick 19 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick122 Rnd4 Tyler Baron
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tyler Baron in the 122nd pick, miles early. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick137 Rnd4 Jonas Sanker
A tidy little value on Jonas Sanker in No. 137, a step better than break-even. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick151 Rnd5 Cody Simon
You do not let a linebacker like Cody Simon reach the 151st overall pick and blink. They did not. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick157 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
They jumped the gun on Jonah Monheim, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick172 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
A safety of that caliber at the Round 5 slot is the definition of value, full stop. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick173 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
Tyler Shough at the 173rd overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The roster fit checks out.
Pick175 Rnd5 Quincy Riley
No drama and no debate, Quincy Riley went about where he belonged in pick No. 175. It fills a real need, too.
Pick189 Rnd6 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at No. 189 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick191 Rnd6 Thor Griffith
They reached a country mile for Thor Griffith at the 191st pick, and the board is aghast. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick213 Rnd6 Cam Jackson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Cam Jackson. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick215 Rnd6 Craig Woodson
They took Craig Woodson at par in pick 215, which is nothing to complain about. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick222 Rnd7 Bilhal Kone
Bilhal Kone at Round 7, Pick 6 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick223 Rnd7 Phillip Webb
Phillip Webb at the Round 7 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick232 Rnd7 Carson Vinson
Carson Vinson at the 232nd overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick235 Rnd7 Jeremy Crawshaw
A premium they did not need to pay, Jeremy Crawshaw a notch or two before his time. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
