Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesA FutureB-
Larceny in the 180th overall pick lands the Panthers a B, Travis and all.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Jordan Travis tumbling to the Panthers in No. 180 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Every board in the league had Barner lower, and that gap is the story.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick35 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Adonai Mitchell. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick65 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson in pick 65 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick89 Rnd3 Audric Estime
A conviction pick on Audric Estime at slot 89 that the board grades a round light. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick101 Rnd4 Cooper Beebe
A reach on Cooper Beebe in the Round 4 slot; the board had better options right there. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick168 Rnd5 AJ Barner
AJ Barner at Round 5, Pick 32 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick180 Rnd6 Jordan Travis
Taking Jordan Travis in the 180th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a quarterback that good had no business lasting this long. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick222 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
Sheridan Jones at the 222nd pick is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
