Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Panthers let Sampson fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Dylan Sampson slide, and the Panthers were the ones holding the card at the 112th overall pick. Highway robbery. The bottom line is a respectable B.

They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They are betting Nash proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In the 8th overall pick they get a double-digit-sack hope. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick57 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
The board fumbled Jalon Walker all the way to pick No. 57, and they scooped it up. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick74 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
They will replay Jihaad Campbell at the Round 3 slot for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick109 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba in slot 109 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick112 Rnd4 Dylan Sampson
Dylan Sampson at pick 112 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick139 Rnd5 Tai Felton
Taking Tai Felton in the 139th pick is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick145 Rnd5 Jake Majors
They robbed the room for Jake Majors here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster fit checks out.
Pick162 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in No. 162 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick227 Rnd7 Nick Nash
They paid a round early for Nick Nash in No. 227, more than the board wanted. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
