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

The Panthers went off the board in a big way for Davison Igbinosun, 75 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Singleton. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped wide receiver, which is a strange place to end up.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In No. 8 they get juice off the edge. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
They robbed the room for Nick Emmanwori here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick74 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
They will replay Jihaad Campbell at slot 74 for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick110 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Circle this one: Kevin Winston Jr. at the Round 4 slot is a fall that decides a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick113 Rnd4 Cobee Bryant
Cobee Bryant at pick No. 113 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick139 Rnd5 Zane Durant
A wild overpay on Zane Durant in Round 5, Pick 2, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick145 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun in slot 145 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick162 Rnd5 Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton in the 162nd overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The roster fit checks out.
Pick227 Rnd7 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed at Round 7, Pick 11 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
