Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Panthers checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

The war room fell hard for LaDarius Henderson, and it showed at pick 217: 36 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. They bet on numbers rather than a single high pick.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
Adonai Mitchell in pick 33 is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick39 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa in No. 39 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick65 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson slid further than he should have, and Round 3, Pick 1 is lovely value for the linebacker. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick101 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at pick No. 101 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick154 Rnd5 Kalen King
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kalen King at the 154th pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick217 Rnd6 LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson in the Round 6 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick218 Rnd6 Nathan Thomas
A premium they did not need to pay, Nathan Thomas a notch or two before his time. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick228 Rnd7 Trey Knox
They did well to land Trey Knox in No. 228, just ahead of his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick240 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor at slot 240 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
