Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall C+
ValueD- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Panthers did enough to get by: C+.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Panthers spent pick 57 on Oluwafemi Oladejo, a name most had 83 spots down the list.

The Grant pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it. They went 3 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Princely Umanmielen
In the 8th pick they get a disruptor off the edge, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Oluwafemi Oladejo
Oluwafemi Oladejo at Round 2, Pick 25 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick74 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott at pick 74 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick111 Rnd4 Elijah Roberts
Elijah Roberts at No. 111 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick114 Rnd4 Charles Grant
Charles Grant in slot 114 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick140 Rnd5 Jalen McLeod
Jalen McLeod at the Round 5 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa in No. 146 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick163 Rnd5 RJ Oben
RJ Oben in pick No. 163 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick230 Rnd7 Dayon Hayes
A real head-scratcher, Dayon Hayes in the Round 7 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
