Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Panthers: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Max Klare, the 83rd pick, roughly 24 picks past where he belonged.

The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Lawrence has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

On the needs board they went 7 of 9, with wide receiver the one that mattered most. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In the Round 1 slot they get a green-dot type in the middle at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick51 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
A tidy little value on Dillon Thieneman in pick 51, a step better than break-even. It fills a real need, too.
Pick83 Rnd3 Max Klare
Max Klare at pick 83 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick119 Rnd4 Malachi Lawrence
Malachi Lawrence in No. 119 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick158 Rnd5 Kevin Coleman Jr.
Good price on Kevin Coleman Jr. in Round 5, Pick 19, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick174 Rnd5 Pat Coogan
By-the-book stuff, Pat Coogan at the 174th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick199 Rnd6 Jalon Daniels
Jalon Daniels at slot 199 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick235 Rnd7 Da'Shawn Womack
They left a pile of value on the table to take Da'Shawn Womack this early at the 235th pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
