Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall D
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureA
The phones sank the Panthers this weekend: D.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Panthers shredded theirs for Ben Sinnott. He came off 47 spots early, and the room will hear about it.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. The Sweat pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with quarterback still on the board.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Burton steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick35 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
They paid sticker price for Xavier Legette in No. 35, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick39 Rnd2 Jonah Elliss
Jonah Elliss at the 39th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick42 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A reach for Jackson Powers-Johnson in the Round 2 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick44 Rnd2 Byron Murphy II
Byron Murphy II at slot 44 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick47 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
They took Ja'Tavion Sanders at par in the 47th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick52 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
A straight-up fair deal on Kiran Amegadjie at Round 2, Pick 20, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick55 Rnd2 Jonathon Brooks
By-the-book stuff, Jonathon Brooks at pick 55 squarely in line with his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick57 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper in the 57th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick58 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
Of all the spots to shop, they chose interior defensive lineman. T'Vondre Sweat in slot 58 leaves quarterback for later.
Pick62 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
They paid up for Cooper Beebe at the 62nd pick when waiting would have done the job. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick67 Rnd3 Jermaine Burton
Taking Jermaine Burton in pick No. 67 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick68 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard in Round 3, Pick 4 is fair value, right on his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick73 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
A wild overpay on Dominick Puni in the Round 3 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick83 Rnd3 Darius Robinson
They reached a country mile for Darius Robinson at No. 83, and the board is aghast. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick85 Rnd3 Kris Abrams-Draine
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Kris Abrams-Draine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick96 Rnd3 Ben Sinnott
They talked themselves into Ben Sinnott at Round 3, Pick 33, and the board did not agree. The roster fit checks out.
