Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall
B
ValueB
NeedA-
TradesB-
FutureB-
The Panthers kept it disciplined and banked a B. You can draft well and still miss the point. The Panthers did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to cornerback, which was the need that mattered most. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.
They went 2 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
Peter Woods
In the Round 1 slot they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick51
Rnd2
Germie Bernard
No drama and no debate, Germie Bernard went about where he belonged in the 51st pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
