Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedA- TradesA+ FutureB-
The Panthers fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+.

The Panthers ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided. No fireworks, but a solid B+.

On value alone, Hill Jr. makes the weekend a net positive. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In the Round 1 slot they get a press-man option on the boundary at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick34 Rnd2 Anthony Hill Jr.
They let Anthony Hill Jr. come to them and pounced at the 34th overall pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick38 Rnd2 Antonio Williams
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Antonio Williams in the 38th pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick70 Rnd3 Kevin Concepcion
Kevin Concepcion at slot 70 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick106 Rnd4 Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson at pick No. 106 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick141 Rnd5 Isaac Smith
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Isaac Smith. It fills a real need, too.
Pick145 Rnd5 Jermaine Mathews Jr.
They paid sticker price for Jermaine Mathews Jr. in No. 145, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick184 Rnd6 Xavier Nwankpa
A clean, defensible pick in Round 6, Pick 8 with a little surplus value in Xavier Nwankpa. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick219 Rnd7 Marquis Johnson
Marquis Johnson at No. 219 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
