Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall D+
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Panthers left with their quarterback, and a D+ to match.

Nobody else had Jawhar Jordan anywhere near Round 6, Pick 3. The Panthers did, by 101 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. So much rides on Jayden Daniels that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped linebacker, which is a strange place to end up.

Legette at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In the 9th pick they get a long-term answer under center. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
Kool-Aid McKinstry at pick No. 33 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick39 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Tyler Guyton at Round 2, Pick 7. The roster fit checks out.
Pick65 Rnd3 Chris Braswell
They robbed the room for Chris Braswell here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick101 Rnd4 Xavier Legette
They will replay Xavier Legette at the 101st overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick142 Rnd5 Marcus Harris
A conviction pick on Marcus Harris at No. 142 that the board grades a round light. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick166 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
A clean, defensible pick in slot 166 with a little surplus value in Tykee Smith. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick178 Rnd6 Jawhar Jordan
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jawhar Jordan well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
