Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Panthers robbed the room for Pegues. Final grade: B+.

You build a draft on nights like this. JJ Pegues had no business being available in Round 7, Pick 11, and the Panthers did the only sane thing and turned in the card. They moved the roster forward and banked a B+ for it.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. For all the activity, safety went untouched, which is hard to explain.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In slot 17 they get an island corner, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Josaiah Stewart
A clean, defensible pick in Round 2, Pick 25 with a little surplus value in Josaiah Stewart. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick74 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger at pick 74 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick111 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
A tidy bit of business in No. 111, where Cam Skattebo graded well above the range. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick114 Rnd4 Savion Williams
They barely believed it either: Savion Williams still on the board at the 114th overall pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick140 Rnd5 Charles Grant
Circle this one: Charles Grant at pick No. 140 is a fall that decides a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick146 Rnd5 Joshua Farmer
Taking Joshua Farmer in the Round 5 slot is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick163 Rnd5 Mello Dotson
Mello Dotson at the 163rd pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick227 Rnd7 JJ Pegues
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like JJ Pegues reach the 227th pick and blink. They did not. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
