Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall A-
ValueA- NeedA- TradesA+ FutureB
The Panthers cashed the board's mistake on Tuten: A-.

You could see the war room lean forward. Bhayshul Tuten at the 255th pick is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

If Robinson pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The phones were where this weekend was really won. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Bottom line, with Tetairoa McMillan leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In Round 1, Pick 14 they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick45 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker in slot 45 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick57 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at pick No. 57 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick74 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston in pick 74 is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick111 Rnd4 Gunnar Helm
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Gunnar Helm in the Round 4 slot, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick114 Rnd4 Tai Felton
Steal is underselling it; Tai Felton at the 114th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick140 Rnd5 Mello Dotson
Mello Dotson in the 140th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick146 Rnd5 Hollin Pierce
Somehow Hollin Pierce was still sitting there in No. 146, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick181 Rnd6 Que Robinson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Que Robinson in pick 181, miles early. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick214 Rnd6 Damien Martinez
Circle this one: Damien Martinez at No. 214 is a fall that decides a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick227 Rnd7 R.J. Mickens
R.J. Mickens at the Round 7 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick255 Rnd7 Bhayshul Tuten
The board fumbled Bhayshul Tuten all the way to the 255th pick, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
