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

When the story of this class is written, it opens with LT Overton at Round 5, Pick 1, a reach of 29 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

That is a quarterback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. For all the activity, linebacker went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In Round 1, Pick 1 they get a potential shutdown corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick45 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
They paid up for Aireontae Ersery at pick No. 45 when waiting would have done the job. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick65 Rnd3 Domani Jackson
Good price on Domani Jackson in the 65th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick102 Rnd4 Dillon Gabriel
Circle this one: Dillon Gabriel at the 102nd overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick139 Rnd5 LT Overton
They reached a country mile for LT Overton at pick 139, and the board is aghast. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick143 Rnd5 Connor Colby
They took Connor Colby at par in No. 143, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick159 Rnd5 Que Robinson
Que Robinson at pick No. 159 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick217 Rnd7 Kyren Lacy
They paid sticker price for Kyren Lacy in the 217th overall pick, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick231 Rnd7 Logan Parr
A straight-up fair deal on Logan Parr at Round 7, Pick 17, value and slot in agreement. It fills a real need, too.
