Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Buccaneers a B-.

The Buccaneers torched the value chart for Cody Schrader, taking him 28 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. Landing Cooper that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson at the 26th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick57 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper slipping to the 57th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick89 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson is a better player than pick 89 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick126 Rnd4 Cody Schrader
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Cody Schrader. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
