Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall
B
ValueB-
NeedA
TradesB-
FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Panthers: B. For all the boxes ticked, the Panthers skipped the loudest one: cornerback is exactly as bare as it was. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.
The Jackson reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick8
Rnd1
Matthew Golden
In pick 8 they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick57
Rnd2
Bradyn Swinson
Bradyn Swinson at the 57th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick74
Rnd3
Donovan Jackson
A premium they did not need to pay, Donovan Jackson a notch or two before his time. The roster fit checks out.
