Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureA+
The Panthers lost the trade table, and the B- tells the story.

The phones were a trap the Panthers kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

Reaching for Brown left real value on the table behind him. The Belton steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Jack Sawyer
In slot 14 they get a bendy edge with upside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Nic Scourton
Value with a capital V on Nic Scourton in the 39th overall pick, a genuine coup. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick49 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Sonny Styles at the Round 2 slot. It fills a real need, too.
Pick57 Rnd2 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins in pick No. 57 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick70 Rnd3 Clay Webb
Nothing to complain about; Clay Webb went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick79 Rnd3 Rod Moore
Rod Moore at No. 79 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick101 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
No edge and no loss on Ozzy Trapilo in the 101st pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick102 Rnd4 Jordan Burch
Jordan Burch in Round 4, Pick 1 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick139 Rnd5 Barion Brown
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Barion Brown well ahead of where he belonged. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick143 Rnd5 Benjamin Morrison
Benjamin Morrison at pick 143 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick217 Rnd7 Julian Fleming
Julian Fleming in pick No. 217 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jason Henderson
A real head-scratcher, Jason Henderson in No. 231 is miles ahead of his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick235 Rnd7 Anthony Belton
Somehow Anthony Belton was still sitting there in the 235th pick, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. The roster fit checks out.
