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

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Buccaneers reached some 37 spots for Antwaun Powell-Ryland, and value like that does not grow back. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

On value alone, Knight Jr. makes the weekend a net positive. The Winston Jr. pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at interior defensive lineman, offensive lineman and other spots. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In No. 30 they get juice off the edge, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick53 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
They read the board right and Xavier Watts was the payoff at the Round 2 slot. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick56 Rnd2 Darien Porter
They reached into another round for Darien Porter, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick84 Rnd3 Demetrius Knight Jr.
A linebacker of that caliber at the 84th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick109 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
They bypassed pressing needs at interior defensive lineman, offensive lineman and other spots to take Kevin Winston Jr., a safety that was not the priority.
Pick121 Rnd4 Antwaun Powell-Ryland
Antwaun Powell-Ryland at pick No. 121 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick157 Rnd5 Nick Nash
Nick Nash at pick No. 157 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick206 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock at the Round 6 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick235 Rnd7 Bilhal Kone
A straight-up fair deal on Bilhal Kone at the 235th pick, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
