Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall C-
ValueC- NeedA- TradesF FutureB-
The Panthers got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the C-.

The Panthers treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending the 33rd overall pick on Xavier Legette a full 40 spots early. Some smart calls, some head-scratchers, and a C- in the wash.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

Adding Diontae Johnson by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

If Xavier Legette and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
This one needs a full-page explanation: Xavier Legette in pick No. 33, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick39 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
A conviction pick on Payton Wilson at the Round 2 slot that the board grades a round light. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick65 Rnd3 Jaylen Wright
No edge and no loss on Jaylen Wright in slot 65; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick101 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
A real head-scratcher, Theo Johnson in Round 4, Pick 1 is miles ahead of his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick141 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett at No. 141 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick142 Rnd5 Kalen King
Kalen King at the 142nd pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick240 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Nothing to complain about; Edefuan Ulofoshio went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
