FutureB-
Jackson should have been long gone. The Buccaneers pounced, and earned a B. You could see the war room lean forward. Ja'Quinden Jackson at Round 7, Pick 15 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.
The cost of the Weaver reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.
For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.
Pick Analysis
Pick33
Rnd2
Shavon Revel Jr.
A reasonable price with a little left over, Shavon Revel Jr. in Round 2, Pick 1. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick54
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
A clean, defensible pick in the 54th pick with a little surplus value in Tyler Booker. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick70
Rnd3
Tyleik Williams
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tyleik Williams. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick75
Rnd3
Chris Paul Jr.
A wild overpay on Chris Paul Jr. in pick 75, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick77
Rnd3
Rylie Mills
Rylie Mills at No. 77 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick86
Rnd3
Jack Bech
They reached into another round for Jack Bech, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick108
Rnd4
Que Robinson
A real head-scratcher, Que Robinson in slot 108 is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick115
Rnd4
Dane Key
This one needs a full-page explanation: Dane Key in pick No. 115, miles early. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick134
Rnd4
Benjamin Morrison
Benjamin Morrison in pick 134 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick140
Rnd5
Barion Brown
They left a pile of value on the table to take Barion Brown this early at slot 140. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick151
Rnd5
Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins at No. 151 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick154
Rnd5
Jordan Hancock
A slide stopped in Round 5, Pick 16, with Jordan Hancock worth more than the price. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick162
Rnd5
Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston at the 162nd overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick166
Rnd5
Quincy Riley
Value said wait; Quincy Riley in the Round 5 slot says they were not listening. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick171
Rnd5
Cody Simon
You do not let a linebacker like Cody Simon reach the 171st pick and blink. They did not. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick172
Rnd5
Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. at pick No. 172 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick174
Rnd5
Jonah Monheim
They reached a country mile for Jonah Monheim at pick 174, and the board is aghast. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick184
Rnd6
Jaishawn Barham
By-the-book stuff, Jaishawn Barham at the 184th pick squarely in line with his ranking. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick202
Rnd6
Ar'maj Reed-Adams
They let Ar'maj Reed-Adams come to them and pounced at the Round 6 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick211
Rnd6
Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith at pick No. 211 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick212
Rnd6
Lathan Ransom
They will replay Lathan Ransom at Round 6, Pick 37 for years; that is how good the value is. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick217
Rnd7
Garrett Dellinger
A big swing on Garrett Dellinger at the 217th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick229
Rnd7
Ja'Quinden Jackson
The board fumbled Ja'Quinden Jackson all the way to slot 229, and they scooped it up. It fills a real need, too.
Pick235
Rnd7
Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey in No. 235 is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick241
Rnd7
J.J. Weaver
A swing that ignored the value entirely, J.J. Weaver well ahead of where he belonged. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick245
Rnd7
Jalen Travis
They talked themselves into Jalen Travis at pick No. 245, and the board did not agree. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
