Gavvo888 DRAFTING FOR THEPanthers
Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall
B

NeedA-

FutureB-
The Panthers checked most of the boxes and earned a B. The war room fell hard for Anthony Lucas, and it showed at Round 2, Pick 19: 38 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.
Getting Lee III where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. The linebacker hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
Carnell Tate
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Carnell Tate in pick No. 19. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick51
Rnd2
Anthony Lucas
Anthony Lucas at Round 2, Pick 19 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick83
Rnd3
Will Lee III
The board fumbled Will Lee III all the way to No. 83, and they scooped it up. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick119
Rnd4
Logan Jones
They paid up for Logan Jones at slot 119 when waiting would have done the job. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
