Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall A-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
Nobody dealt better than the Buccaneers this weekend: A-.

The Buccaneers treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending No. 220 on LaDarius Henderson a full 39 spots early.

They banked enough surplus on Sturdivant to cover a lot of smaller sins. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up.

It is a haul that will look even better come September.

Pick Analysis
Pick35 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at slot 35 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick42 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
The board had cheaper options than Cooper DeJean at Round 2, Pick 10, and it noticed. It fills a real need, too.
Pick74 Rnd3 Ruke Orhorhoro
Ruke Orhorhoro in the 74th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick95 Rnd3 Jaylin Simpson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jaylin Simpson in pick 95. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick110 Rnd4 Tyler Guyton
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Tyler Guyton. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick124 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
They liked Beaux Limmer enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 124. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick140 Rnd5 James Williams
A quiet steal in the 140th pick: James Williams for less than the market said. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick188 Rnd6 J. Michael Sturdivant
J. Michael Sturdivant at the 188th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick220 Rnd6 LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson in No. 220 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick242 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern at the Round 7 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
