Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesC FutureA+
The Panthers robbed the room for Johnson. Final grade: B+.

Somebody in slot 161 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Panthers sat still while Theo Johnson, the No. 122 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Brandon Graham pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick53 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
They let Xavier Legette come to them and pounced at the Round 2 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick69 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
A tidy bit of business in the 69th overall pick, where Xavier Worthy graded well above the range. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick118 Rnd4 Calen Bullock
Steal is underselling it; Calen Bullock at pick 118 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick143 Rnd5 Josh Newton
Josh Newton in slot 143 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick161 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
You do not let a tight end like Theo Johnson reach the 161st pick and blink. They did not. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick171 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey at pick No. 171 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick227 Rnd7 Steele Chambers
The board fumbled Steele Chambers all the way to Round 7, Pick 7, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick240 Rnd7 Andrew Raym
A straight-up fair deal on Andrew Raym at No. 240, value and slot in agreement. The roster fit checks out.
Pick253 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Taking Frank Gore Jr. in slot 253 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick256 Rnd7 Michael Barrett
They robbed the room for Michael Barrett here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
