Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Buccaneers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Tanor Bortolini, 43 picks early at Round 4, Pick 25. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

Landing Sainristil that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In pick 26 they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value.
Pick57 Rnd2 Trey Benson
A wild overpay on Trey Benson in the 57th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick89 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil is a better player than Round 3, Pick 26 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The roster fit checks out.
Pick92 Rnd3 Javon Baker
They took Javon Baker at par in pick No. 92, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick125 Rnd4 Tanor Bortolini
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tanor Bortolini in the 125th overall pick, miles early. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick220 Rnd6 Kalen DeLoach
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Kalen DeLoach. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick246 Rnd7 Donovan Jennings
Value with a capital V on Donovan Jennings in Round 7, Pick 26, a genuine coup. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
