Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall C-
ValueF NeedB+ TradesD- FutureA+
The Panthers bled value on every deal, hence the C-.

The Panthers spent real capital to be 314 picks early on Steven Parker, and the board is going to hold them to it. It washes out to a C-, no better and no worse.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Bassa. The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

So much rides on Steven Parker that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick57 Rnd2 Steven Parker
Steven Parker at pick No. 57 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick69 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
They paid sticker price for Isaiah Bond in the 69th pick, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick74 Rnd3 Matthew Golden
They will replay Matthew Golden at the 74th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick106 Rnd4 Stone Handy
A big swing on Stone Handy at No. 106, well ahead of any board in the building. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick111 Rnd4 Alijah Huzzie
Value said wait; Alijah Huzzie in the Round 4 slot says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick114 Rnd4 Hayden Conner
They left a pile of value on the table to take Hayden Conner this early at Round 4, Pick 12. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick140 Rnd5 Shilo Sanders
Shilo Sanders in slot 140 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick146 Rnd5 Ethan Downs
They talked themselves into Ethan Downs at the Round 5 slot, and the board did not agree. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick163 Rnd5 Zeek Biggers
A wild overpay on Zeek Biggers in pick No. 163, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick230 Rnd7 Jeffrey Bassa
They robbed the room for Jeffrey Bassa here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
