Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB+ FutureD
A solid, sensible weekend for the Panthers: B-.

The Panthers clearly saw something nobody else did in Elijah Roberts, taking him 58 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.

They banked enough surplus on Mullings to cover a lot of smaller sins. The linebacker spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the linebacker spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In No. 8 they get an anchor for the defensive front. More want than need.
Pick16 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In pick No. 16 they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick111 Rnd4 David Walker
Value said wait; David Walker in Round 4, Pick 9 says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick114 Rnd4 Elijah Roberts
Elijah Roberts in the Round 4 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick140 Rnd5 Anthony Belton
They robbed the room for Anthony Belton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster fit checks out.
Pick146 Rnd5 Kalel Mullings
Somehow Kalel Mullings was still sitting there in the 146th pick, and they pounced on premier running back value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick163 Rnd5 Dorian Strong
Dorian Strong at pick No. 163 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick227 Rnd7 Torricelli Simpkins III
Torricelli Simpkins III in the Round 7 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick253 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
They reached a country mile for Shilo Sanders at slot 253, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
