Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA FutureB
The Panthers cashed the board's mistake on Isaac: B+.

You build a draft on nights like this. Adisa Isaac had no business being available in the 101st pick, and the Panthers did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

Leaving safety unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They are betting Robinson proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

On the needs board they went 7 of 9, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick39 Rnd2 Ladd McConkey
A tidy little value on Ladd McConkey in the Round 2 slot, a step better than break-even. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick48 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
Ja'Tavion Sanders at Round 2, Pick 16 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The roster fit checks out.
Pick65 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in the 65th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick101 Rnd4 Adisa Isaac
The board fumbled Adisa Isaac all the way to pick 101, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick116 Rnd4 Caelen Carson
They will replay Caelen Carson at No. 116 for years; that is how good the value is. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick142 Rnd5 Jamari Thrash
Jamari Thrash slipping to slot 142 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick153 Rnd5 James Williams
James Williams in the 153rd pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick166 Rnd5 Layden Robinson
They jumped the gun on Layden Robinson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick240 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
A tidy bit of business in the Round 7 slot, where Frank Gore Jr. graded well above the range. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
