Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Panthers: B-.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Panthers reached some 28 spots for Christian Jones, and value like that does not grow back.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

The skill positions did well by the weekend.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the cornerback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
No edge and no loss on Xavier Legette in pick No. 33; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick65 Rnd3 Blake Corum
The board had cheaper options than Blake Corum at the Round 3 slot, and it noticed. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick101 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
A straight-up fair deal on Dominick Puni at No. 101, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick169 Rnd5 Christian Jones
They reached a country mile for Christian Jones at pick 169, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick180 Rnd6 AJ Barner
AJ Barner in Round 6, Pick 5 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick222 Rnd7 Matthew Jones
They left a pile of value on the table to take Matthew Jones this early at the 222nd overall pick. It fills a real need, too.
