Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Buccaneers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The Patrick Payton pick is the one that will follow the Buccaneers into the fall. They took him 42 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They left with tight end solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Matayo Uiagalelei
In pick No. 16 they get a problem off the edge, even if it was a touch early. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick47 Rnd2 Romello Height
No drama and no debate, Romello Height went about where he belonged in the Round 2 slot. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick78 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
Eli Stowers at the 78th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jaishawn Barham
By-the-book stuff, Jaishawn Barham at pick 116 squarely in line with his ranking. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick154 Rnd5 Chase Roberts
Chase Roberts in No. 154 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick195 Rnd6 Patrick Payton
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Patrick Payton. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick232 Rnd7 Jordan Castell
No edge and no loss on Jordan Castell in the Round 7 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
