Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall

ValueA

FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Panthers for King: A-. Thirty-one other rooms let Kobe King slide, and the Panthers were the ones holding the card at the 229th pick. Highway robbery.
Conner has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
Bottom line, they did the job about as well as it can be done.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In the 12th overall pick they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick44
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
They barely believed it either: Tyler Warren still on the board at slot 44. The roster fit checks out.
Pick57
Rnd2
Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks at the Round 2 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick58
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
Circle this one: Jalon Walker at Round 2, Pick 26 is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick110
Rnd4
TreVeyon Henderson
You do not let a running back like TreVeyon Henderson reach No. 110 and blink. They did not. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick141
Rnd5
Jake Majors
Jake Majors in pick No. 141 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick147
Rnd5
Quinshon Judkins
Taking Quinshon Judkins in the 147th pick is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick164
Rnd5
Hayden Conner
A real head-scratcher, Hayden Conner in pick 164 is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick190
Rnd6
Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. in pick No. 190 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick229
Rnd7
Kobe King
Steal is underselling it; Kobe King at the 229th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
