Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Panthers a B-.

Nobody else had Theo Johnson anywhere near No. 102. The Panthers did, by 34 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. That McCaffrey pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
By-the-book stuff, Adonai Mitchell at the 33rd pick squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick65 Rnd3 Jaylen Wright
They paid a round early for Jaylen Wright in slot 65, more than the board wanted. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick102 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson at Round 4, Pick 2 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick141 Rnd5 Christian Jones
A clean, defensible pick in the 141st overall pick with a little surplus value in Christian Jones. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick165 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
Good price on Mason McCormick in pick 165, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick180 Rnd6 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey is a better player than pick No. 180 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
