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

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Bryce Boettcher, 30 picks early at the 157th pick. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In pick 19 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick51 Rnd2 Kamari Ramsey
A tidy little value on Kamari Ramsey in the Round 2 slot, a step better than break-even. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick83 Rnd3 Keith Abney II
A slide stopped in slot 83, with Keith Abney II worth more than the price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick119 Rnd4 Zachariah Branch
No edge and no loss on Zachariah Branch in the 119th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick156 Rnd5 Drew Allar
They paid sticker price for Drew Allar in pick No. 156, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick157 Rnd5 Bryce Boettcher
Value said wait; Bryce Boettcher in Round 5, Pick 19 says they were not listening. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick200 Rnd6 DJ Campbell
DJ Campbell at pick No. 200 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick235 Rnd7 Pat Coogan
Pat Coogan at the 235th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
