Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesF FutureB
The Panthers lost the trade table, and the D- tells the story.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Ben Sinnott; the Panthers did not wait, grabbing him 69 spots ahead at the Round 2 slot. Put together, it is a D-.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. The safety spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

The Brownlee Jr. value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Troy Franklin
In the 29th pick they get a matchup problem out wide. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick33 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton at No. 33 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick63 Rnd2 Ben Sinnott
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Ben Sinnott. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick67 Rnd3 Bralen Trice
By-the-book stuff, Bralen Trice at slot 67 squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick132 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Good price on Cedric Gray in Round 4, Pick 32, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick141 Rnd5 Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
They will replay Jarvis Brownlee Jr. at pick 141 for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick176 Rnd6 Javion Cohen
Javion Cohen at the 176th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick180 Rnd6 Drake Nugent
Drake Nugent in pick No. 180 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick209 Rnd6 Myles Murphy
They jumped the gun on Myles Murphy, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
