Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall
B
ValueB-
NeedA-
TradesB-
FutureB-
The Panthers kept it disciplined and banked a B. The one they had to fix is still broken. The Panthers left wide receiver untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. No fireworks, but a solid B.
Job largely done: cornerback settled and 2 of 9 of the wish list covered. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
Cashius Howell
In the Round 1 slot they get a double-digit-sack hope. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick51
Rnd2
D'Angelo Ponds
A straight-up fair deal on D'Angelo Ponds at the 51st pick, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
