Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in the 139th overall pick: the Panthers steal Neal and grade out a B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Devin Neal tumbling to the Panthers in pick No. 139 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

Every board in the league had West lower, and that gap is the story. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In the 8th overall pick they get a problem off the edge. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Steal is underselling it; Malaki Starks at Round 2, Pick 22 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick74 Rnd3 Darien Porter
They took Darien Porter at par in No. 74, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jack Bech
Jack Bech slid further than he should have, and slot 110 is lovely value for the wide receiver. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick113 Rnd4 Deontae Lawson
They barely believed it either: Deontae Lawson still on the board at pick 113. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick139 Rnd5 Devin Neal
Circle this one: Devin Neal at the Round 5 slot is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick145 Rnd5 CJ West
CJ West in pick No. 145 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick162 Rnd5 Miles Frazier
They reached a country mile for Miles Frazier at the 162nd pick, and the board is aghast. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick227 Rnd7 Woody Marks
Woody Marks at the 227th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It fills a real need, too.
