Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Panthers checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

The Craig Woodson pick is the one that will follow the Panthers into the fall. They took him 61 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

Castro at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through linebacker.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but linebacker.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
In the 8th overall pick they get juice off the edge, even if it was a touch early. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick57 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
Value with a capital V on Marcus Mbow in the Round 2 slot, a genuine coup. The roster fit checks out.
Pick74 Rnd3 Tez Johnson
A wild overpay on Tez Johnson in pick No. 74, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick111 Rnd4 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe is a better player than slot 111 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick114 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. at the 114th pick is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick140 Rnd5 Sebastian Castro
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Sebastian Castro in Round 5, Pick 2, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick146 Rnd5 Zy Alexander
Circle this one: Zy Alexander at the 146th pick is a fall that decides a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick163 Rnd5 Craig Woodson
Value said wait; Craig Woodson in pick 163 says they were not listening. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick230 Rnd7 Jack Nelson
They barely believed it either: Jack Nelson still on the board at pick No. 230. It fills a real need, too.
