Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
Nobody dealt better than the Buccaneers this weekend: B+.

The trade table was a mismatch, and the Buccaneers were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value.

Moore has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Benjamin Morrison
In pick No. 13 they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick69 Rnd3 Cameron Ward
Cameron Ward in pick 69 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick77 Rnd3 Trevor Etienne
They jumped the gun on Trevor Etienne, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick109 Rnd4 Derrick Moore
Value said wait; Derrick Moore in Round 4, Pick 13 says they were not listening. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick150 Rnd5 Zach Rice
Zach Rice in slot 150 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
