Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Panthers, and a B- to prove it.

The Panthers looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Jordan Whittington at Round 7, Pick 2 regardless, 49 picks early.

Leaving cornerback 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.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
By-the-book stuff, Xavier Legette at slot 33 squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick65 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
A conviction pick on Christian Mahogany at the Round 3 slot that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick101 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni at pick 101 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick168 Rnd5 AJ Barner
This one needs a full-page explanation: AJ Barner in pick No. 168, miles early. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick180 Rnd6 Braiden McGregor
Value said wait; Braiden McGregor in the 180th pick says they were not listening. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick222 Rnd7 Jordan Whittington
They reached a country mile for Jordan Whittington at No. 222, and the board is aghast. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
