Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall A-
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
Best value of the weekend goes to the Panthers for Singleton: A-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Nicholas Singleton had no business being available in pick 233, and the Panthers did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

Allar has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

The DeForest Buckner pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 9 of 9 of the wish list covered.

In short, they turned a good board into a better roster, and it shows.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In the 19th overall pick they get a bendy edge with upside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick51 Rnd2 Luther Burden III
Luther Burden III at No. 51 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick54 Rnd2 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore in pick 54 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick71 Rnd3 Drew Allar
Drew Allar at slot 71 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
Pick83 Rnd3 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant is a better player than pick No. 83 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick107 Rnd4 Mello Dotson
Mello Dotson at Round 4, Pick 6 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick111 Rnd4 Jake Majors
They barely believed it either: Jake Majors still on the board at the 111th pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick140 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Smael Mondon Jr. at the Round 5 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick147 Rnd5 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland in the Round 5 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick162 Rnd5 Jay Higgins
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jay Higgins in No. 162, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick222 Rnd7 Miles Frazier
Miles Frazier at pick 222 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick233 Rnd7 Nicholas Singleton
The board fumbled Nicholas Singleton all the way to the 233rd overall pick, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick256 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Shilo Sanders at Round 7, Pick 42. The roster fit checks out.
