Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Panthers: B-.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Rayshaun Benny in slot 156, a good 21 spots before the room expected him.

That safety hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. On the needs board they went 6 of 9, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Joshua Josephs
In the 19th pick they get a problem off the edge, reach and all. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick51 Rnd2 Keith Abney II
Keith Abney II at pick 51 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick83 Rnd3 Jacob Rodriguez
They went early on Jacob Rodriguez in the Round 3 slot, and the value did not follow. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick119 Rnd4 Logan Jones
Logan Jones in slot 119 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick156 Rnd5 Rayshaun Benny
A real head-scratcher, Rayshaun Benny in No. 156 is miles ahead of his ranking. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick157 Rnd5 Eric McAlister
A conviction pick on Eric McAlister at the 157th overall pick that the board grades a round light. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick198 Rnd6 Joey Aguilar
A reach for Joey Aguilar in the 198th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick235 Rnd7 London Humphreys
London Humphreys in the 235th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
