The Panthers cashed the board's mistake on Singleton: A-. Thirty-one other rooms let Nicholas Singleton slide, and the Panthers were the ones holding the card at the 227th overall pick. Highway robbery. The board rewarded a patient, disciplined weekend with a A-.
If Hemingway pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
In the end it comes back to Malaki Starks, and a haul good enough to build on right away.
Pick Analysis
Pick37
Rnd2
Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks in slot 37 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick54
Rnd2
Shemar Stewart
Shemar Stewart in No. 54 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick74
Rnd3
Jihaad Campbell
A linebacker of that caliber at Round 3, Pick 10 is the definition of value, full stop. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick76
Rnd3
Tyler Warren
They barely believed it either: Tyler Warren still on the board at pick No. 76. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick110
Rnd4
Jake Majors
Jake Majors at the Round 4 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick113
Rnd4
Kaleb Johnson
The board fumbled Kaleb Johnson all the way to the 113th pick, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick139
Rnd5
Luke Kandra
Steal is underselling it; Luke Kandra at the 139th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick145
Rnd5
Tai Felton
Circle this one: Tai Felton at pick 145 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick148
Rnd5
TreVeyon Henderson
Somehow TreVeyon Henderson was still sitting there in the 148th pick, and they pounced on premier running back value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick162
Rnd5
Willie Lampkin
Willie Lampkin in pick 162 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick179
Rnd6
Tonka Hemingway
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tonka Hemingway this early at pick No. 179. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick227
Rnd7
Nicholas Singleton
They will replay Nicholas Singleton at Round 7, Pick 11 for years; that is how good the value is. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
