Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Buccaneers kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Demon Clowney at No. 250 is 74 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Reese value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

Job largely done: interior defensive lineman settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get the heartbeat of the defense at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick46 Rnd2 Akheem Mesidor
A reach for Akheem Mesidor in the Round 2 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. It fills a real need, too.
Pick84 Rnd3 Malik Muhammad
Fair-plus on Malik Muhammad, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick116 Rnd4 Michael Trigg
Michael Trigg at pick 116 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick120 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
A tidy bit of business in slot 120, where Jalon Kilgore graded well above the range. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick153 Rnd5 Albert Regis
They took Albert Regis at par in pick No. 153, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick208 Rnd6 Fernando Carmona
No drama and no debate, Fernando Carmona went about where he belonged in the Round 6 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick229 Rnd7 Jordan Hall
They liked Jordan Hall enough to skip the value, taking him in the 229th overall pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick250 Rnd7 Demon Clowney
Demon Clowney in No. 250 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
