Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Buccaneers.

The Buccaneers went off the board in a big way for Antwaun Powell-Ryland, 37 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In pick 19 they get a lockdown presence outside, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick53 Rnd2 Bradyn Swinson
A straight-up fair deal on Bradyn Swinson at slot 53, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick84 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
No drama and no debate, Andrew Mukuba went about where he belonged in the 84th overall pick. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick121 Rnd4 Antwaun Powell-Ryland
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Antwaun Powell-Ryland well ahead of where he belonged. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick157 Rnd5 Nick Nash
A reasonable price with a little left over, Nick Nash in Round 5, Pick 19. A need, and now a little less of one.
