Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in the Round 5 slot: the Panthers steal Singleton and grade out a B-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Panthers watched Nicholas Singleton slide 57 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

The Bryant pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
Abdul Carter at pick 5 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick47 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Kenneth Grant well ahead of where he belonged. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick71 Rnd3 Kyle Kennard
A reach for Kyle Kennard in No. 71; a little patience would have been rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick107 Rnd4 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren in the 107th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick113 Rnd4 Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander at the Round 4 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick139 Rnd5 Cobee Bryant
They talked themselves into Cobee Bryant at the 139th overall pick, and the board did not agree. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick143 Rnd5 Rylie Mills
Rylie Mills at pick No. 143 is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick160 Rnd5 Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton in Round 5, Pick 22 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick223 Rnd7 Barrett Carter
Taking Barrett Carter in the 223rd overall pick is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick231 Rnd7 Kevin Winston Jr.
Somehow Kevin Winston Jr. was still sitting there in pick 231, and they pounced on premier safety value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
