FutureC+
The Panthers bled value on every deal, hence the C-. Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Fabien Lovett at pick 180 is 170 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. It washes out to a C-, no better and no worse.
The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
The Burton pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.
Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.
Pick Analysis
Pick33
Rnd2
Graham Barton
A straight-up fair deal on Graham Barton at the 33rd overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick65
Rnd3
Kingsley Suamataia
Fair-plus on Kingsley Suamataia, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick79
Rnd3
Jermaine Burton
Jermaine Burton slid further than he should have, and Round 3, Pick 15 is lovely value for the wide receiver. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick85
Rnd3
Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson at the 85th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick168
Rnd5
Ainias Smith
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Ainias Smith at slot 168 is the proof. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick180
Rnd6
Fabien Lovett
Fabien Lovett at No. 180 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick222
Rnd7
Kendall Milton
This one needs a full-page explanation: Kendall Milton in the 222nd pick, miles early. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
