Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall A
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA+
Best value of the weekend goes to the Panthers for Ferguson: A.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Terrance Ferguson tumbling to the Panthers in Round 5, Pick 23 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. One of the weekend's best, top to bottom, and a A to show for it.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Adding Edgerrin Cooper by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies. It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Malaki Starks
In pick No. 23 they get a rangy last line of defense at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick24 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In pick 24 they get a green-dot type in the middle. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Value with a capital V on Jihaad Campbell in Round 2, Pick 22, a genuine coup. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick74 Rnd3 T.J. Sanders
Somehow T.J. Sanders was still sitting there in No. 74, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick130 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
You do not let a wide receiver like Tez Johnson reach the 130th overall pick and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick140 Rnd5 Nick Nash
A straight-up fair deal on Nick Nash at the Round 5 slot, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick146 Rnd5 Kobe King
A quiet steal in slot 146: Kobe King for less than the market said. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick161 Rnd5 Terrance Ferguson
Terrance Ferguson at the 161st pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick163 Rnd5 Mello Dotson
The board fumbled Mello Dotson all the way to Round 5, Pick 25, and they scooped it up. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick168 Rnd5 Dorian Strong
Fair-plus on Dorian Strong, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick227 Rnd7 Alijah Huzzie
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Alijah Huzzie in pick No. 227, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
