Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA- FutureB-
Larceny in the Round 2 slot lands the Panthers a B, Emmanwori and all.

Call it larceny. Nick Emmanwori sat on the board until the 44th overall pick, and the Panthers did not need to be asked twice.

They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They will need Kennard to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Nick Emmanwori in the Round 2 slot, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick57 Rnd2 Kyle Kennard
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Kyle Kennard well ahead of where he belonged. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick74 Rnd3 Deone Walker
The board had cheaper options than Deone Walker at pick No. 74, and it noticed. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick111 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. in the 111th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick114 Rnd4 Xavier Restrepo
They let Xavier Restrepo come to them and pounced at pick 114. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick140 Rnd5 Riley Leonard
The board had Riley Leonard higher than slot 140, and the quarterback fell to them anyway. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick146 Rnd5 Trevor Etienne
A straight-up fair deal on Trevor Etienne at the 146th pick, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick163 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
They went early on Jonah Monheim in the Round 5 slot, and the value did not follow. It fills a real need, too.
Pick204 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
Value with a capital V on Jaylen Reed in slot 204, a genuine coup. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick230 Rnd7 Zeek Biggers
They reached into another round for Zeek Biggers, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
