Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Panthers a B-.

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Panthers never addressed edge rusher, and it is the kind of gap that lingers.

Every board in the league had Worthy lower, and that gap is the story. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy in the 33rd overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
They took Ennis Rakestraw Jr. at par in pick 39, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick65 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
They went early on Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in the Round 3 slot, and the value did not follow. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick101 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at Round 4, Pick 1 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick141 Rnd5 Jamari Thrash
Jamari Thrash in No. 141 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick142 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
They paid up for Trevor Keegan at pick No. 142 when waiting would have done the job. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick240 Rnd7 Trente Jones
Trente Jones at the 240th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
