Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Panthers, and a B- to prove it.

There is reaching, and then there is Ben Sinnott at Round 5, Pick 2. The Panthers jumped the board by 22 and dared it to prove them wrong. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

The linebacker hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Sainristil pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 5 of 9 of the wish list covered.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Troy Franklin
No drama and no debate, Troy Franklin went about where he belonged in the Round 2 slot. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick65 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson in the 65th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick101 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
A tidy little value on Dominick Puni in pick 101, a step better than break-even. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick138 Rnd5 Ben Sinnott
They left a pile of value on the table to take Ben Sinnott this early at pick No. 138. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick168 Rnd5 Mike Sainristil
Circle this one: Mike Sainristil at Round 5, Pick 32 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick181 Rnd6 Tre Harris
Value with a capital V on Tre Harris in No. 181, a genuine coup. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick222 Rnd7 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden in slot 222 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
