Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The phones sank the Panthers this weekend: D-.

The Panthers lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again. Put together, it is a D-.

They will regret leaving linebacker for another day if the season turns on it. They are betting Zinter proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The Egbuka pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, linebacker very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman at the 30th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick33 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka in pick 33 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick62 Rnd2 Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran in slot 62 is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick65 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter at the Round 3 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick101 Rnd4 Graham Barton
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Graham Barton. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick138 Rnd5 Darius Robinson
They paid sticker price for Darius Robinson in the 138th pick, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick180 Rnd6 Cam Hart
Cam Hart at pick No. 180 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick222 Rnd7 Landon Jackson
They took Landon Jackson at par in No. 222, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
