Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Panthers: B-.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Trey Taylor; the Panthers did not wait, grabbing him 26 spots ahead at the 240th overall pick.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through linebacker. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Good work on the whole, with linebacker the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson in slot 33 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick39 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
No edge and no loss on Darius Robinson in the 39th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick65 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
Malachi Corley in pick No. 65 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick101 Rnd4 Andru Phillips
By-the-book stuff, Andru Phillips at the Round 4 slot squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick142 Rnd5 Isaiah Davis
A conviction pick on Isaiah Davis at No. 142 that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick166 Rnd5 Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell at Round 5, Pick 30 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick240 Rnd7 Trey Taylor
Trey Taylor in the 240th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
