Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Panthers: B-.

There is reaching, and then there is Bralen Trice at the Round 2 slot. The Panthers jumped the board by 30 and dared it to prove them wrong. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

Leaving safety unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. 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 safety.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Bralen Trice
Bralen Trice at the Round 2 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman at pick 39 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick65 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at Round 3, Pick 1, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick101 Rnd4 Cam Hart
They paid sticker price for Cam Hart in No. 101, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick142 Rnd5 Xavier Thomas
A real head-scratcher, Xavier Thomas in the 142nd overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick166 Rnd5 Tanor Bortolini
They reached a country mile for Tanor Bortolini at pick No. 166, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick240 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
A reach for Brevyn Spann-Ford in slot 240; a little patience would have been rewarded. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
