If confidence were a draft strategy, the Panthers would have aced it. Jasheen Davis at pick No. 230 is 127 spots clear of where he belonged. More right than wrong, and a B+ to match.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. On value alone, Brown makes the weekend a net positive.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
