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

The Jimmy Horn Jr. selection is the head-turner. The Panthers reached 146 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

The Paul Jr. pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In pick No. 8 they get a sticky cover corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick76 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Alfred Collins reach No. 76 and blink. They did not. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick109 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
Somehow TreVeyon Henderson was still sitting there in pick 109, and they pounced on premier running back value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick112 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Malachi Moore at the Round 4 slot. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick139 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at the 139th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The roster fit checks out.
Pick145 Rnd5 Chris Paul Jr.
Taking Chris Paul Jr. in slot 145 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick150 Rnd5 Jackson Slater
Jackson Slater at slot 150 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick162 Rnd5 Jimmy Horn Jr.
They reached into another round for Jimmy Horn Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick187 Rnd6 Shilo Sanders
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Shilo Sanders. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick209 Rnd6 Logan Parr
A real head-scratcher, Logan Parr in the 209th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick227 Rnd7 Steven Parker
Steven Parker at Round 7, Pick 11 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
