Larceny in the 240th pick lands the Panthers a C, Washington and all.

When a board-topper like Tahj Washington slides to the 240th overall pick, you do not overthink it, and the Panthers did not.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. They will need Corum to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Hit on Xavier Legette and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
They paid sticker price for Xavier Legette in the 33rd overall pick, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
They reached into another round for Payton Wilson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick65 Rnd3 Blake Corum
A wild overpay on Blake Corum in the Round 3 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick101 Rnd4 Maason Smith
Maason Smith at No. 101 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick104 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
A real head-scratcher, Theo Johnson in Round 4, Pick 4 is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick141 Rnd5 Kalen King
Kalen King at the 141st pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick142 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
A straight-up fair deal on Nehemiah Pritchett at pick 142, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick240 Rnd7 Tahj Washington
Tahj Washington at pick No. 240 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
