Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B
ValueB NeedA TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Panthers: B.

Everything else got attention, and edge rusher got none. That is a strange way for the Panthers to leave a draft. The bottom line is a respectable B.

Tampa at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They went 3 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
Adonai Mitchell at pick No. 33 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick39 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
They took Payton Wilson at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick65 Rnd3 T.J. Tampa
Value with a capital V on T.J. Tampa in slot 65, a genuine coup. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
