Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Panthers let Wilson fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Johnny Wilson, the No. 126 name on the board, stolen at the 240th overall pick. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

They will need Hall to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The linebacker spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the linebacker spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
They paid sticker price for Jackson Powers-Johnson in pick No. 33, and that is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick39 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
They did well to land Ja'Tavion Sanders in pick 39, just ahead of his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick65 Rnd3 Brian Thomas Jr.
They will replay Brian Thomas Jr. at No. 65 for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick101 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in the 101st overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick142 Rnd5 Justin Eboigbe
They took Justin Eboigbe at par in the Round 5 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick166 Rnd5 Gabe Hall
They reached into another round for Gabe Hall, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick240 Rnd7 Johnny Wilson
The board fumbled Johnny Wilson all the way to Round 7, Pick 20, and they scooped it up. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
