Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall D
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureB
The Panthers lost the trade table, and the D tells the story.

The trade table was where it all came apart. The Panthers shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill. Hard to defend, and the D reflects that.

The Frazier reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The safety spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick No. 1 they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick4 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup weapon at tight end. A real need, handled.
Pick33 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy in the 33rd overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick49 Rnd2 Trey Benson
Trey Benson at pick 49 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The roster fit checks out.
Pick65 Rnd3 Chris Braswell
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Chris Braswell. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick68 Rnd3 Jack Sawyer
A straight-up fair deal on Jack Sawyer at No. 68, value and slot in agreement. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick81 Rnd3 Quinyon Mitchell
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Quinyon Mitchell at the 81st pick is the proof. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick101 Rnd4 Zach Frazier
Zach Frazier at Round 4, Pick 1 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick104 Rnd4 Max Melton
They let Max Melton come to them and pounced at No. 104. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick117 Rnd4 Donovan Jackson
They paid up for Donovan Jackson at slot 117 when waiting would have done the job. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick138 Rnd5 Darius Robinson
No drama and no debate, Darius Robinson went about where he belonged in pick No. 138. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick139 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper in Round 5, Pick 3 is fair value, right on his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
