Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesC FutureB
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Panthers: B.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Panthers started one anyway for Taylen Green, 39 picks ahead of schedule. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Taaffe.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In No. 19 they get a home-run threat at receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick51 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
They read the board right and Emmanuel Pregnon was the payoff at slot 51. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick84 Rnd3 Michael Taaffe
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Michael Taaffe in the Round 3 slot. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick119 Rnd4 Mike Washington Jr.
Mike Washington Jr. in Round 4, Pick 19 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick146 Rnd5 Taylen Green
They reached into another round for Taylen Green, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick159 Rnd5 Albert Regis
They took Albert Regis at par in pick 159, which is nothing to complain about. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick175 Rnd5 Kaleb Elarms-Orr
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kaleb Elarms-Orr. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick235 Rnd7 DJ Harvey
DJ Harvey at pick 235 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
