Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Buccaneers: B-.

The Buccaneers put a flag in the ground for Jalon Walker, 43 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Lacy. Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Barrett Carter
A reasonable price with a little left over, Barrett Carter in No. 28. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick59 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson in pick 59 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick93 Rnd3 Tacario Davis
By-the-book stuff, Tacario Davis at Round 3, Pick 29 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick126 Rnd4 Oscar Delp
Oscar Delp in the Round 4 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick162 Rnd5 Quinn Carroll
Quinn Carroll at the 162nd overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at slot 164 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
Pick240 Rnd7 Kyren Lacy
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Kyren Lacy in slot 240, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick243 Rnd7 Dante Trader Jr.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Dante Trader Jr. this early at Round 7, Pick 29. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
