Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall D
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesF FutureB
The Panthers got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Panthers shredded theirs for Jared Wiley. He came off 35 spots early, and the room will hear about it. The process wobbled, and the D is where it lands.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. They will regret leaving linebacker for another day if the season turns on it.

The McCaffrey steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and linebacker is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
By-the-book stuff, Adonai Mitchell at the 29th pick squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick33 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at slot 33 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick61 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
They took Zach Frazier at par in the 61st overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick65 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at No. 65 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick102 Rnd4 Tyler Davis
Tyler Davis at the Round 4 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick141 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick at pick No. 141 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick165 Rnd5 Jared Wiley
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jared Wiley this early at the 165th pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick180 Rnd6 Luke McCaffrey
Nice patience on Luke McCaffrey, who had no business lasting to slot 180. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
