Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall A-
ValueB+ NeedA- TradesA+ FutureB-
Larceny in pick 166 lands the Panthers a A-, Eichenberg and all.

Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Panthers came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close.

Getting Eichenberg where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. Leaving offensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Panthers paired the rookies with proven help, Deebo Samuel leading the way.

Bottom line, they did the job about as well as it can be done.

Pick Analysis
Pick39 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
A quiet steal in pick No. 39: Cooper DeJean for less than the market said. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick65 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
The board had Xavier Worthy higher than Round 3, Pick 1, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick107 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
Nothing to complain about; Cole Bishop went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick142 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
They barely believed it either: Theo Johnson still on the board at No. 142. The roster fit checks out.
Pick166 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
Steal is underselling it; Tommy Eichenberg at the 166th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick240 Rnd7 Eric Watts
They read the board right and Eric Watts was the payoff at the 240th pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
