Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureC+
Sanders should have been long gone. The Panthers pounced, and earned a B+.

Call it larceny. Raheim Sanders sat on the board until No. 227, and the Panthers did not need to be asked twice. No fireworks, but a solid B+.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver. Garrett Wilson gives the group a proven body among the projects.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In the Round 1 slot they get a premier pass rusher at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick57 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Steal is underselling it; Jalon Walker at the 57th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick163 Rnd5 Sebastian Castro
They robbed the room for Sebastian Castro here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick227 Rnd7 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders in No. 227 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
