Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall A-
ValueA NeedB TradesA+ FutureB+
The Panthers answered their biggest question with Ward. Grade: A-.

Thirty-one other rooms let Dylan Fairchild slide, and the Panthers were the ones holding the card at the Round 7 slot. Highway robbery.

Cam Ward gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.

The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

In the end it comes back to Cam Ward, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In No. 12 they get a long-term answer under center at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick47 Rnd2 Travis Hunter
Somehow Travis Hunter was still sitting there in the 47th pick, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick75 Rnd3 Tre Harris
Tre Harris in pick 75 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick77 Rnd3 Wyatt Milum
Wyatt Milum at pick No. 77 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick107 Rnd4 Walter Nolen
They will replay Walter Nolen at Round 4, Pick 6 for years; that is how good the value is. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick111 Rnd4 Nick Emmanwori
They robbed the room for Nick Emmanwori here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick113 Rnd4 Josaiah Stewart
The board fumbled Josaiah Stewart all the way to the 113th overall pick, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick140 Rnd5 Kyle Kennard
They barely believed it either: Kyle Kennard still on the board at the Round 5 slot. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick147 Rnd5 Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. in the 147th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick149 Rnd5 Jahdae Barron
Jahdae Barron in No. 149 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick162 Rnd5 Armand Membou
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 162nd overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick170 Rnd5 Jermari Harris
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Jermari Harris in pick No. 170, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick189 Rnd6 T.J. Sanders
T.J. Sanders at the Round 6 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick222 Rnd7 Smael Mondon Jr.
Circle this one: Smael Mondon Jr. at the 222nd pick is a fall that decides a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick233 Rnd7 Jake Majors
You do not let an offensive lineman like Jake Majors reach Round 7, Pick 19 and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick256 Rnd7 Dylan Fairchild
Steal is underselling it; Dylan Fairchild at No. 256 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
