Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B
ValueA NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Panthers won the night they stopped Turner from sliding. Grade: B.

The board owed the Panthers one, and it paid up: Shemar Turner, the No. 84 name on the board, sitting there at the Round 7 slot like a gift left on the doorstep. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

For all the activity, linebacker went untouched, which is hard to explain. They went 6 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In the 8th pick they get a sticky cover corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick57 Rnd2 Ashton Jeanty
Ashton Jeanty at the 57th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It fills a real need, too.
Pick74 Rnd3 Walter Nolen
They will replay Walter Nolen at pick No. 74 for years; that is how good the value is. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick111 Rnd4 Colston Loveland
Circle this one: Colston Loveland at slot 111 is a fall that decides a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick114 Rnd4 Armand Membou
Armand Membou in Round 4, Pick 12 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick140 Rnd5 Josaiah Stewart
Taking Josaiah Stewart in No. 140 is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jahdae Barron
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Jahdae Barron in pick 146, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick163 Rnd5 Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson in the Round 5 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick230 Rnd7 Shemar Turner
Somehow Shemar Turner was still sitting there in pick No. 230, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
