Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Buccaneers robbed the room for Arnold. Final grade: B+.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Jackson Arnold, the 200th pick, roughly 45 picks past where he belonged.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. The cost of the Grimes reach is exactly the players who went right after him. A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Dani Dennis-Sutton
In Round 1, Pick 26 they get a premier pass rusher. A real need, handled.
Pick54 Rnd2 CJ Allen
CJ Allen in slot 54 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick86 Rnd3 Aaron Graves
Good price on Aaron Graves in No. 86, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick122 Rnd4 Luke Hasz
The board had cheaper options than Luke Hasz at the 122nd pick, and it noticed. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick161 Rnd5 Mark Fletcher Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Mark Fletcher Jr. at the Round 5 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick198 Rnd6 Tony Grimes
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tony Grimes in pick No. 198, miles early. The roster fit checks out.
Pick200 Rnd6 Jackson Arnold
You do not let a quarterback like Jackson Arnold reach pick 200 and blink. They did not. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick235 Rnd7 J.C. Davis
They will replay J.C. Davis at the 235th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
