Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall
D+
ValueB
NeedB
TradesF
FutureA+
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Panthers to a D+. The Trey Moore selection is the head-turner. The Panthers reached 106 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. The math is unkind, and the D+ follows.
Gordon II falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The trade table is where this weekend went wrong.
The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.
It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.
Pick Analysis
Pick11
Rnd1
Princely Umanmielen
In No. 11 they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33
Rnd2
Jalen Milroe
They reached into another round for Jalen Milroe, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick36
Rnd2
Malachi Moore
A safety of that caliber at Round 2, Pick 4 is the definition of value, full stop. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick42
Rnd2
Isaiah Bond
Isaiah Bond at slot 42 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick49
Rnd2
Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins in the 49th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick56
Rnd2
Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks in pick No. 56 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
Pick63
Rnd2
DJ Campbell
Taking DJ Campbell in pick 63 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick66
Rnd3
Smael Mondon Jr.
Somehow Smael Mondon Jr. was still sitting there in the 66th overall pick, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick70
Rnd3
Harold Fannin Jr.
They robbed the room for Harold Fannin Jr. here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster fit checks out.
Pick71
Rnd3
T.J. Sanders
They barely believed it either: T.J. Sanders still on the board at pick No. 71. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick107
Rnd4
Jaxson Dart
Jaxson Dart at the Round 4 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick111
Rnd4
Jaeden Roberts
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jaeden Roberts well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick136
Rnd4
Trey Moore
They left a pile of value on the table to take Trey Moore this early at slot 136. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick142
Rnd5
Sebastian Castro
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Sebastian Castro in Round 5, Pick 4, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick162
Rnd5
Deontae Lawson
Deontae Lawson in the Round 5 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick222
Rnd7
Ollie Gordon II
Circle this one: Ollie Gordon II at the 222nd overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick256
Rnd7
Jacobe Covington
A big swing on Jacobe Covington at pick 256, well ahead of any board in the building. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
