Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall

FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Panthers: B-. The one they had to fix is still broken. The Panthers left cornerback untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul.
They will need Uiagalelei to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They went 2 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
Matayo Uiagalelei
In pick No. 19 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, even if it was a touch early. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick51
Rnd2
Ja'Kobi Lane
Ja'Kobi Lane in slot 51 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
