Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedA- TradesC FutureB-
The Panthers kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Panthers did exactly that with Braiden McGregor in the 142nd pick.

They punted on offensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette in pick 33 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
A reach on Edgerrin Cooper in slot 39; the board had better options right there. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick65 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
The board had cheaper options than Mike Sainristil at pick No. 65, and it noticed. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick101 Rnd4 Maason Smith
They liked Maason Smith enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 101. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick141 Rnd5 AJ Barner
A wild overpay on AJ Barner in the Round 5 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick142 Rnd5 Braiden McGregor
They reached a country mile for Braiden McGregor at Round 5, Pick 6, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick240 Rnd7 Michael Barrett
A clean, defensible pick in the 240th overall pick with a little surplus value in Michael Barrett. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
