Draft Grade — Buccaneers

FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Buccaneers a B. Nobody had Richard Jibunor this high, and it is not close. The Buccaneers reached 91 spots to get him at pick 220.
They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. They will answer for taking linebacker early while interior defensive lineman went begging. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
JC Latham
In pick 19 they get an anchor for the offensive line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick64
Rnd2
Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper in slot 64 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick95
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
They liked Cooper Beebe enough to skip the value, taking him in the 95th overall pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick97
Rnd3
Audric Estime
A straight-up fair deal on Audric Estime at No. 97, value and slot in agreement. The roster fit checks out.
Pick100
Rnd3
J. Michael Sturdivant
A tidy little value on J. Michael Sturdivant in the 100th pick, a step better than break-even. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick102
Rnd4
Tommy Eichenberg
A curious use of Round 4, Pick 2. Interior defensive lineman needed the pick; a linebacker in Tommy Eichenberg did not.
Pick119
Rnd4
Javon Foster
They paid a round early for Javon Foster in No. 119, more than the board wanted. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick124
Rnd4
Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at the 124th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. It fills a real need, too.
Pick132
Rnd4
James Williams
James Williams at the 132nd overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick138
Rnd5
Theo Johnson
No drama and no debate, Theo Johnson went about where he belonged in slot 138. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick139
Rnd5
Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at pick 139 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick156
Rnd5
Darius Robinson
They paid sticker price for Darius Robinson in pick No. 156, and that is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick168
Rnd5
Justin Eboigbe
They jumped the gun on Justin Eboigbe, taking him earlier than his grade liked. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick174
Rnd5
Christian Jones
Christian Jones at the Round 5 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick197
Rnd6
Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten at the 197th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick212
Rnd6
Nathaniel Watson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Nathaniel Watson in the 212th overall pick, miles early. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick220
Rnd6
Richard Jibunor
They reached a country mile for Richard Jibunor at Round 6, Pick 45, and the board is aghast. Where it fits the depth chart is the real question.
Pick240
Rnd7
Cody Schrader
Cody Schrader in pick No. 240 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick245
Rnd7
Eric Gentry
They did well to land Eric Gentry in No. 245, just ahead of his grade. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick253
Rnd7
Erick All
A reasonable price with a little left over, Erick All in pick 253. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
