Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall C-
ValueF NeedB TradesD- FutureB-
The phones sank the Buccaneers this weekend: C-.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Buccaneers spent the 121st overall pick on Ty French, a name most had 302 spots down the list. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C-.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Shavon Revel Jr.
In the 16th pick they get a sticky cover corner, reach and all. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick84 Rnd3 Maliq Carr
A wild overpay on Maliq Carr in slot 84, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick94 Rnd3 Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra at Round 3, Pick 30 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick121 Rnd4 Ty French
Ty French in pick No. 121 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick235 Rnd7 Khris Bogle
They left a pile of value on the table to take Khris Bogle this early at pick 235. A need, and now a little less of one.
