Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Panthers a B-.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Panthers reached some 129 spots for Tony Rojas, and value like that does not grow back. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain. That Hood pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
Caleb Downs in No. 14 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick49 Rnd2 Romello Height
A reach on Romello Height in the 49th overall pick; the board had better options right there. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick80 Rnd3 Colton Hood
Colton Hood at the 80th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick115 Rnd4 Drew Allar
Drew Allar at pick 115 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick151 Rnd5 Jacob Rodriguez
Jacob Rodriguez at slot 151 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick154 Rnd5 Aaron Graves
They reached into another round for Aaron Graves, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick197 Rnd6 Pat Coogan
Pat Coogan in the 197th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick231 Rnd7 Tony Rojas
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tony Rojas in the Round 7 slot, miles early. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
