Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall A-
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
Edwards should have been long gone. The Panthers pounced, and earned a A-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Donovan Edwards, the No. 190 name on the board, stolen at pick No. 230. They executed a plan and it shows in the A-.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

The Jauan Jennings pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

Few war rooms will sleep better than this one tonight.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the 11th pick they get a matchup problem out wide. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick32 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the Round 1 slot they get a security blanket over the middle, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick74 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
They took Maxwell Hairston at par in pick 74, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick114 Rnd4 Jake Majors
A slide stopped in the 114th overall pick, with Jake Majors worth more than the price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick118 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Malachi Moore at Round 4, Pick 16. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick146 Rnd5 Joshua Farmer
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Joshua Farmer in No. 146, plain and simple. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick163 Rnd5 Cody Simon
You do not let a linebacker like Cody Simon reach pick No. 163 and blink. They did not. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick218 Rnd7 Roc Taylor
Roc Taylor in slot 218 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick230 Rnd7 Donovan Edwards
Steal is underselling it; Donovan Edwards at slot 230 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
