goat DRAFTING FOR THEPanthers
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall
B
ValueB-
NeedA-

FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Panthers. You can hear the double-takes from here. The Panthers took Phillip Webb at pick No. 232, roughly 76 spots before his name belonged.
On value alone, Walker makes the weekend a net positive. That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In slot 4 they get a weapon on the perimeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick50
Rnd2
Jack Sawyer
Somehow Jack Sawyer was still sitting there in No. 50, and they pounced on premier edge rusher value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick72
Rnd3
Jake Majors
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jake Majors this early at the Round 3 slot. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick108
Rnd4
Willie Lampkin
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Willie Lampkin well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick113
Rnd4
Jared Ivey
Taking Jared Ivey in pick No. 113 is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick139
Rnd5
Jordan Burch
They barely believed it either: Jordan Burch still on the board at Round 5, Pick 1. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick143
Rnd5
DeMonte Capehart
A conviction pick on DeMonte Capehart at the Round 5 slot that the board grades a round light. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick155
Rnd5
Harold Perkins Jr.
The board fumbled Harold Perkins Jr. all the way to pick No. 155, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick220
Rnd7
David Walker
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, David Walker in slot 220, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick232
Rnd7
Phillip Webb
Phillip Webb in pick 232 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
