Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Panthers cashed the board's mistake on Suamataia: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Kingsley Suamataia tumbling to the Panthers in No. 102 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through linebacker. They will need Corley to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but linebacker.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Terrion Arnold
Terrion Arnold slipping to Round 2, Pick 1 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick65 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
A reach for Malachi Corley in pick 65; a little patience would have been rewarded. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick102 Rnd4 Kingsley Suamataia
They robbed the room for Kingsley Suamataia here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick141 Rnd5 Jacob Cowing
Jacob Cowing at slot 141 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick165 Rnd5 Johnny Dixon
Steal is underselling it; Johnny Dixon at the Round 5 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick180 Rnd6 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo is a better player than pick No. 180 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
