Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB FutureC+
The Panthers robbed the room for Phillips. Final grade: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Andru Phillips, the Round 5 slot, roughly 40 picks past where he belonged. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

For all the activity, linebacker went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Panthers clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes. The trade work was a quiet net positive.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick39 Rnd2 Graham Barton
Value with a capital V on Graham Barton in the 39th overall pick, a genuine coup. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick43 Rnd2 Brian Thomas Jr.
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Brian Thomas Jr. at pick No. 43 is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick66 Rnd3 Kamari Lassiter
The board fumbled Kamari Lassiter all the way to the 66th pick, and they scooped it up. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick90 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
Circle this one: Kiran Amegadjie at No. 90 is a fall that decides a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick142 Rnd5 Andru Phillips
Taking Andru Phillips in the Round 5 slot is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick144 Rnd5 Beau Brade
Beau Brade is a better player than Round 5, Pick 8 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick240 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Frank Gore Jr. at slot 240. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
