Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Neal should have been long gone. The Panthers pounced, and earned a B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Devin Neal slide, and the Panthers were the ones holding the card at the 162nd overall pick. Highway robbery. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

Griffith has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it. Linebacker was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In pick No. 8 they get juice off the edge. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
They robbed the room for Malaki Starks here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick74 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
Circle this one: Dylan Fairchild at pick 74 is a fall that decides a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick109 Rnd4 Tyler Warren
Somehow Tyler Warren was still sitting there in the Round 4 slot, and they pounced on premier tight end value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick112 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
Steal is underselling it; Barrett Carter at the 112th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick126 Rnd4 Demetrius Knight Jr.
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Demetrius Knight Jr. in the 126th pick, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick139 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
A linebacker of that caliber at Round 5, Pick 2 is the definition of value, full stop. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick145 Rnd5 Jake Majors
They will replay Jake Majors at slot 145 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick162 Rnd5 Devin Neal
Devin Neal in the Round 5 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick165 Rnd5 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles in pick No. 165 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
Pick227 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
A big swing on Thor Griffith at the 227th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
