Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedA- TradesA FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B+ for the Panthers.

The war room fell hard for Drake Nugent, and it showed at No. 165: 38 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.

The Coleman value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They punted on safety, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The trade work was a quiet net positive.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick35 Rnd2 Troy Franklin
Good price on Troy Franklin in pick No. 35, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick65 Rnd3 Keon Coleman
You do not let a wide receiver like Keon Coleman reach pick 65 and blink. They did not. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick90 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Circle this one: Patrick Paul at No. 90 is a fall that decides a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick100 Rnd3 Cam Hart
Fair-plus on Cam Hart, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick141 Rnd5 Nelson Ceaser
Nelson Ceaser in the 141st pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick165 Rnd5 Drake Nugent
They reached a country mile for Drake Nugent at the Round 5 slot, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick177 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper in Round 6, Pick 2 is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick226 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
They took Frank Gore Jr. at par in the Round 7 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
