Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Panthers never addressed wide receiver, and it is the kind of gap that lingers.

Brown at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. If Taylor III pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.
