Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureC+
The Panthers robbed the room for Ransaw. Final grade: B+.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Caleb Ransaw, Round 7, Pick 29, roughly 41 picks past where he belonged. It does the job without flash, and the B+ reflects it.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. If Wilson pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The veteran additions, Tyreek Hill chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Shemar Stewart
In Round 1, Pick 13 they get a bendy edge with upside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick36 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
A tidy bit of business in pick 36, where Nick Emmanwori graded well above the range. It fills a real need, too.
Pick74 Rnd3 Jared Wilson
They talked themselves into Jared Wilson at the Round 3 slot, and the board did not agree. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick111 Rnd4 Cobee Bryant
They paid up for Cobee Bryant at pick No. 111 when waiting would have done the job. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick140 Rnd5 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips in No. 140 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick146 Rnd5 Brashard Smith
A slide stopped in slot 146, with Brashard Smith worth more than the price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick245 Rnd7 Caleb Ransaw
They robbed the room for Caleb Ransaw here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A need, and now a little less of one.
