Starchychaff DRAFTING FOR THEPanthers
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall
B
ValueB-
NeedA-
TradesB-
FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Panthers. For all the boxes ticked, the Panthers skipped the loudest one: wide receiver is exactly as bare as it was. More right than wrong, and a B to match.
They are betting Bailey proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The Harris pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Travis Hunter
Travis Hunter at No. 1 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick50
Rnd2
Jonah Savaiinaea
They went early on Jonah Savaiinaea in pick No. 50, and the value did not follow. It fills a real need, too.
Pick65
Rnd3
Jay Higgins
No drama and no debate, Jay Higgins went about where he belonged in the 65th overall pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick97
Rnd4
Shavon Revel Jr.
They paid sticker price for Shavon Revel Jr. in slot 97, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick129
Rnd5
David Bailey
They talked themselves into David Bailey at Round 5, Pick 1, and the board did not agree. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick161
Rnd6
Jermari Harris
Jermari Harris in the Round 6 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
