Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall

FutureA+
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Panthers to a C. The Panthers lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again. Fine in stretches, shaky in others: a C.
Reaching for Brown left real value on the table behind him. The Moore value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped linebacker, which is a strange place to end up.
Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.
Pick Analysis
Pick39
Rnd2
Landon Jackson
No drama and no debate, Landon Jackson went about where he belonged in the 39th overall pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick44
Rnd2
Abdul Carter
Fair-plus on Abdul Carter, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick61
Rnd2
Jason Marshall Jr.
Jason Marshall Jr. at pick 61 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick65
Rnd3
Clay Webb
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Clay Webb. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick69
Rnd3
T.J. Sanders
T.J. Sanders at Round 3, Pick 5 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick70
Rnd3
Malachi Moore
A straight-up fair deal on Malachi Moore at the 70th pick, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick94
Rnd3
David Bailey
Nothing to complain about; David Bailey went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick114
Rnd4
Rod Moore
They barely believed it either: Rod Moore still on the board at No. 114. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick117
Rnd4
Jaeden Roberts
Jaeden Roberts at Round 4, Pick 16 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick139
Rnd5
Barion Brown
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Barion Brown. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick227
Rnd7
Elijhah Badger
They paid a round early for Elijhah Badger in pick 227, more than the board wanted. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
