Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B-
ValueC- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Panthers: B-.

There is reaching, and then there is Xavier Legette at No. 33. The Panthers jumped the board by 41 and dared it to prove them wrong.

A whole weekend of picks and offensive lineman is somehow still a want. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Pritchett.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
They reached a country mile for Xavier Legette at the Round 2 slot, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
No edge and no loss on Payton Wilson in the 39th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick65 Rnd3 Jaylen Wright
A conviction pick on Jaylen Wright at Round 3, Pick 1 that the board grades a round light. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick101 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
A real head-scratcher, Theo Johnson in the 101st overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick142 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
A slide stopped in No. 142, with Nehemiah Pritchett worth more than the price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick166 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
They paid sticker price for Luke McCaffrey in pick No. 166, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick178 Rnd6 Khristian Boyd
Khristian Boyd at Round 6, Pick 3 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
