Draft Grade — Buccaneers

The Buccaneers kept it disciplined and banked a B-. Nobody had Mason Taylor this high, and it is not close. The Buccaneers reached 25 spots to get him at pick No. 53.
The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Tight end is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
Mike Green
In the Round 1 slot they get a premier pass rusher, reach and all. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick53
Rnd2
Mason Taylor
A wild overpay on Mason Taylor in the 53rd overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
