icynfl DRAFTING FOR THEPanthers
Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall
B
ValueB
NeedA-
TradesB-
FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Panthers, and a B to prove it. The one they had to fix is still broken. The Panthers left linebacker untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.
Suamataia falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick33
Rnd2
Adonai Mitchell
Adonai Mitchell at the 33rd pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick39
Rnd2
Chris Braswell
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Chris Braswell. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick65
Rnd3
Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia slipping to the Round 3 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick101
Rnd4
Andru Phillips
Good price on Andru Phillips in pick 101, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
