Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA FutureA-
The Buccaneers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B+.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Troy Bowles; the Buccaneers did not wait, grabbing him 62 spots ahead at slot 235.

Landing Hill Jr. that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 A.J. Harris
In pick 22 they get an island corner, though they paid up to get him. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Anthony Hill Jr.
Anthony Hill Jr. at No. 54 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick86 Rnd3 R Mason Thomas
No edge and no loss on R Mason Thomas in the 86th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick200 Rnd6 Lawson Luckie
They paid sticker price for Lawson Luckie in Round 6, Pick 24, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick235 Rnd7 Troy Bowles
A real head-scratcher, Troy Bowles in the Round 7 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
