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

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Panthers started one anyway for Gabe Hall, 32 picks ahead of schedule. Hard to defend, and the D reflects that.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. They will regret leaving offensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
By-the-book stuff, Xavier Legette at slot 33 squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson in Round 2, Pick 7 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick65 Rnd3 Blake Corum
This one needs a full-page explanation: Blake Corum in No. 65, miles early. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick100 Rnd3 Cam Hart
A straight-up fair deal on Cam Hart at pick No. 100, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick101 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
Value said wait; Theo Johnson in the 101st overall pick says they were not listening. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick141 Rnd5 Kalen King
No drama and no debate, Kalen King went about where he belonged in pick 141. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick142 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey in the Round 5 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick144 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
A conviction pick on Kitan Oladapo at pick 144 that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick160 Rnd5 Braiden McGregor
They jumped the gun on Braiden McGregor, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick189 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Gabe Hall well ahead of where he belonged. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick240 Rnd7 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett in the 240th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
