Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall A
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA+
The Panthers worked the phones like thieves and earned a A.

The Panthers treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending slot 126 on Jalon Daniels a full 80 spots early. Just about everything broke right, and the A follows.

The Henderson pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The phones were where this weekend was really won.

They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it.

Bottom line, with Princely Umanmielen leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Princely Umanmielen
In pick 28 they get a premier pass rusher at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Josaiah Stewart
Josaiah Stewart at No. 60 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick62 Rnd2 Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson at Round 2, Pick 30 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick71 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
Somehow Xavier Watts was still sitting there in pick No. 71, and they pounced on premier safety value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick86 Rnd3 Jake Majors
Steal is underselling it; Jake Majors at the Round 3 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick89 Rnd3 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. at the 89th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick124 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
The board fumbled TreVeyon Henderson all the way to No. 124, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick125 Rnd4 Deontae Lawson
They will replay Deontae Lawson at the 125th pick for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jalon Daniels
Jalon Daniels in pick 126 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
