Williams should have been long gone. The Panthers pounced, and earned a A-. Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Isaiah Williams got past him. The Panthers do not have to explain a thing at slot 236. This is how you run a draft, and the A- reflects it.
They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. The linebacker hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.
Pick Analysis
Pick36
Rnd2
Ja'Tavion Sanders
By-the-book stuff, Ja'Tavion Sanders at pick 36 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick46
Rnd2
Ladd McConkey
Ladd McConkey slipping to the 46th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick47
Rnd2
Xavier Worthy
A reach for Xavier Worthy in pick No. 47; a little patience would have been rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick51
Rnd2
Kris Jenkins
No edge and no loss on Kris Jenkins in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick52
Rnd2
Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell at No. 52 is money in the bank, a edge rusher taken below his worth. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick53
Rnd2
Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in slot 53 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick54
Rnd2
Kamari Lassiter
A tidy bit of business in the 54th overall pick, where Kamari Lassiter graded well above the range. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick55
Rnd2
Tyler Nubin
They let Tyler Nubin come to them and pounced at Round 2, Pick 23. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick56
Rnd2
Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson at the 56th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick174
Rnd5
Khristian Boyd
Khristian Boyd at pick No. 174 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick233
Rnd7
Garret Greenfield
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Garret Greenfield in No. 233. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick236
Rnd7
Isaiah Williams
A wide receiver of that caliber at Round 7, Pick 16 is the definition of value, full stop. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick240
Rnd7
Caedan Wallace
Caedan Wallace in slot 240 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A need, and now a little less of one.
