Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
Grand theft in slot 222: the Panthers steal Judkins and grade out a B+.

Somebody in pick No. 222 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Panthers sat still while Quinshon Judkins, the No. 84 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. The bottom line is a respectable B+.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. Grant has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka at the 13th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick44 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant in No. 44 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick47 Rnd2 Shavon Revel Jr.
You do not let a cornerback like Shavon Revel Jr. reach the Round 2 slot and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick71 Rnd3 Malachi Moore
They barely believed it either: Malachi Moore still on the board at pick 71. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick107 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at Round 4, Pick 6 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick111 Rnd4 Jalen Royals
The board fumbled Jalen Royals all the way to pick No. 111, and they scooped it up. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick140 Rnd5 Deontae Lawson
Deontae Lawson at slot 140 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick147 Rnd5 Sebastian Castro
Taking Sebastian Castro in the 147th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick162 Rnd5 Donovan Jackson
They paid sticker price for Donovan Jackson in the 162nd overall pick, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick222 Rnd7 Quinshon Judkins
They will replay Quinshon Judkins at No. 222 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick233 Rnd7 Jake Briningstool
A tight end of that caliber at the Round 7 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick256 Rnd7 Nick Martin
Nick Martin in pick No. 256 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
