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

Thirty-one other rooms let Nicholas Singleton slide, and the Panthers were the ones holding the card at the 220th overall pick. Highway robbery. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

The wide receiver spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Job largely done: cornerback settled and 6 of 9 of the wish list covered.

Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Shavon Revel Jr.
In slot 15 they get a lockdown presence outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick50 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jalon Walker in the Round 2 slot, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick72 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at the 72nd overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick108 Rnd4 Donovan Ezeiruaku
The board fumbled Donovan Ezeiruaku all the way to the 108th pick, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick113 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
The board had Kevin Winston Jr. higher than pick 113, and the safety fell to them anyway. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick117 Rnd4 Jake Majors
They robbed the room for Jake Majors here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick143 Rnd5 Jordan Burch
Jordan Burch in pick No. 143 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick148 Rnd5 Chris Paul Jr.
They barely believed it either: Chris Paul Jr. still on the board at No. 148. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick155 Rnd5 Jay Higgins
They will replay Jay Higgins at the Round 5 slot for years; that is how good the value is. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick220 Rnd7 Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton at Round 7, Pick 6 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick232 Rnd7 Xavier Nwankpa
A safety of that caliber at slot 232 is the definition of value, full stop. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
