Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Panthers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Panthers would have aced it. Michael Barrett at Round 6, Pick 5 is 38 spots clear of where he belonged. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
They paid sticker price for Adonai Mitchell in slot 33, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick65 Rnd3 Xavier Legette
The board had cheaper options than Xavier Legette at Round 3, Pick 1, and it noticed. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick102 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Theo Johnson. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick141 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Mason McCormick well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick165 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey in No. 165 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick180 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
This one needs a full-page explanation: Michael Barrett in pick 180, miles early. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
