Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Panthers.

The Panthers looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Gabe Hall at slot 180 regardless, 34 picks early.

They will regret leaving offensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. If one pick saves this weekend, it is James.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Troy Franklin
A clean, defensible pick in the 33rd pick with a little surplus value in Troy Franklin. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick65 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
A tidy little value on Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in slot 65, a step better than break-even. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick102 Rnd4 DJ James
DJ James in the 102nd overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick141 Rnd5 Justin Eboigbe
They liked Justin Eboigbe enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 5 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick165 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Luke McCaffrey. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick180 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
Gabe Hall at No. 180 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
