Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Panthers: B.

The Panthers treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending Round 4, Pick 1 on Justin Eboigbe a full 23 spots early. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

They will regret leaving safety for another day if the season turns on it. The Latham pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

Good work on the whole, with safety the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 JC Latham
A tidy bit of business in Round 2, Pick 1, where JC Latham graded well above the range. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick65 Rnd3 Jermaine Burton
The board had Jermaine Burton higher than the 65th overall pick, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick101 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe at No. 101 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick168 Rnd5 AJ Barner
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for AJ Barner. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick180 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
A tidy little value on Curtis Jacobs in pick No. 180, a step better than break-even. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick222 Rnd7 Daequan Hardy
Daequan Hardy in pick 222 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
