Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall C-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesF FutureC
The Panthers bled value on every deal, hence the C-.

The Panthers spent real capital to be 64 picks early on Drew Allar, and the board is going to hold them to it. Call it a C- and check back in two years.

Fannin Jr. at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Hit on Emeka Egbuka and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
In Round 1, Pick 5 they get a difference-maker at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick47 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren in the 47th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick49 Rnd2 Drew Allar
They left a pile of value on the table to take Drew Allar this early at pick No. 49. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick71 Rnd3 Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. at the Round 3 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick107 Rnd4 Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton at slot 107 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick113 Rnd4 Zy Alexander
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Zy Alexander well ahead of where he belonged. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick139 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
They liked Lathan Ransom enough to skip the value, taking him in the 139th pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick143 Rnd5 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell in No. 143 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick160 Rnd5 Zane Durant
No edge and no loss on Zane Durant in slot 160; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick223 Rnd7 Kevin Winston Jr.
They let Kevin Winston Jr. come to them and pounced at pick 223. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick231 Rnd7 Azareye'h Thomas
They paid sticker price for Azareye'h Thomas in Round 7, Pick 17, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
