Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Panthers to a D.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Panthers took Will Sheppard at No. 243, roughly 111 spots before his name belonged. The board pushed back all weekend, and the D is the result.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

Landing Nelson that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Mike Green
In pick 12 they get a premier pass rusher, reach and all. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick25 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In pick No. 25 they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick38 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
They robbed the room for Nick Emmanwori here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick89 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba at No. 89 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick110 Rnd4 Denzel Burke
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Denzel Burke in the Round 4 slot, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick127 Rnd4 Savion Williams
Savion Williams in Round 4, Pick 26 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick141 Rnd5 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins at slot 141 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick147 Rnd5 LeQuint Allen
Good price on LeQuint Allen in Round 5, Pick 8, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson in the 164th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick229 Rnd7 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey at No. 229 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick243 Rnd7 Will Sheppard
Will Sheppard at the Round 7 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
