Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the 235th pick lands the Buccaneers a B-, Rogers and all.

You build a draft on nights like this. Caleb Rogers had no business being available in slot 235, and the Buccaneers did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

The Stewart pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Josaiah Stewart
In slot 19 they get a disruptor off the edge, a steep price for the projection. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick53 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
A clean, defensible pick in the 53rd pick with a little surplus value in Aireontae Ersery. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick84 Rnd3 Deone Walker
By-the-book stuff, Deone Walker at No. 84 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick121 Rnd4 Jordan James
Jordan James in pick 121 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick157 Rnd5 Mello Dotson
Mello Dotson in Round 5, Pick 19 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick235 Rnd7 Caleb Rogers
The board fumbled Caleb Rogers all the way to the 235th overall pick, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
