Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Panthers and Ransom: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Lathan Ransom tumbling to the Panthers in the 163rd overall pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

If Kennard pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
In the 12th overall pick they get a home-run threat at receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick44 Rnd2 Kyle Kennard
A wild overpay on Kyle Kennard in pick 44, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick57 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins at the 57th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick74 Rnd3 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. in pick No. 74 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick111 Rnd4 Charles Grant
The board fumbled Charles Grant all the way to the Round 4 slot, and they scooped it up. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick114 Rnd4 Dorian Strong
Dorian Strong in Round 4, Pick 12 is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick140 Rnd5 Jeffrey Bassa
You do not let a linebacker like Jeffrey Bassa reach No. 140 and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick146 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Kyle Williams. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick163 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
They robbed the room for Lathan Ransom here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
Pick204 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
They barely believed it either: Ollie Gordon II still on the board at pick 204. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick230 Rnd7 Zeek Biggers
They paid a round early for Zeek Biggers in pick No. 230, more than the board wanted. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
