Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the 232nd overall pick lands the Panthers a C+, Perkins Jr. and all.

You build a draft on nights like this. Harold Perkins Jr. had no business being available in Round 7, Pick 18, and the Panthers did the only sane thing and turned in the card. A mixed bag that lands at C+.

The Sapp reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want.

Linebacker was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In Round 1, Pick 4 they get a security blanket over the middle, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick50 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
A quiet steal in No. 50: Harold Fannin Jr. for less than the market said. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick72 Rnd3 Jordan James
Jordan James slid further than he should have, and the 72nd pick is lovely value for the running back. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick108 Rnd4 Nicholas Singleton
They paid sticker price for Nicholas Singleton in pick No. 108, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick113 Rnd4 Kyle Kennard
A edge rusher of that caliber at the Round 4 slot is the definition of value, full stop. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick139 Rnd5 Jordan Burch
Circle this one: Jordan Burch at pick 139 is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick143 Rnd5 Kevin Winston Jr.
The board fumbled Kevin Winston Jr. all the way to the 143rd overall pick, and they scooped it up. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick155 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
They will replay Lathan Ransom at slot 155 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick220 Rnd7 Tyreak Sapp
Value said wait; Tyreak Sapp in slot 220 says they were not listening. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick232 Rnd7 Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. at No. 232 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
