Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall C
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureD+
The Panthers got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the C.

The trade table was where it all came apart. The Panthers shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill.

They will need Griffith to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Brown pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Adding Jer'Zhan Newton by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

It grades out a shrug today, with plenty of room to move either way.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 4 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick19 Rnd1 Tacario Davis
In the 19th pick they get a ballhawk on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Mitchell Evans
The board had cheaper options than Mitchell Evans at slot 36, and it noticed. The roster fit checks out.
Pick51 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
A reasonable price with a little left over, Xavier Watts in the 51st overall pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick65 Rnd3 Danny Stutsman
They did well to land Danny Stutsman in pick 65, just ahead of his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick97 Rnd4 Samuel Brown
Samuel Brown slipping to No. 97 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick129 Rnd5 TJ Ferguson
No drama and no debate, TJ Ferguson went about where he belonged in pick No. 129. It fills a real need, too.
Pick161 Rnd6 Moose Muhammad III
Moose Muhammad III at the Round 6 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick168 Rnd6 Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith in Round 6, Pick 8 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick208 Rnd7 J.J. Weaver
They paid up for J.J. Weaver at the Round 7 slot when waiting would have done the job. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick217 Rnd7 Gavin Sawchuk
Gavin Sawchuk at pick 217 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
