Best of the offense

1. RT Taylor Moton: 81.0.

2. WR Tetairoa McMillan: 79.3

3. LG Damien Lewis: 77.7

4. WR Jalen Coker: 75.4

5. RG Brady Christensen: 72.7

Moton's excellence continues, as he's now finished with a top-three offensive grade for Carolina in six of the last seven seasons. The former second-round pick, amongst Panthers with at least 100 offensive snaps, has taken the No. 1 spot three times since 2020.

McMillan and Coker led the team in the passing game—with 79.2 and 75.3 receiving grades, respectively. The former also comes away 1,014 receiving yards, the most ever for a Panthers rookie.

Worst of the offense

18. C Cade Mays: 61.0

19. WR Hunter Renfrow: 56.9

20. WR Xavier Legette: 52.0

21. TE Ja'Tavion Sanders: 51.6

22. RG Chandler Zavala: 43.5

Save for wideout David Moore, Legette and Sanders finished with the offense's two lowest receiving grades (54.0 and 50.2). Both also took a dip in production from their rookie campaigns, with Legette going from 497 receiving yards to 363 and Sanders from 342 to 190.

Zavala, amongst Panthers at that 100-snap mark, has finished with the unit's worst overall grade in two of his three NFL seasons.

 

Best of the defense

1. CB Mike Jackson: 83.5

2. DL Derrick Brown: 73.3

3. CB Corey Thornton: 68.5

4. OLB Nic Scourton: 68.0

5. DL A'Shawn Robinson: 63.7

Excluding his 26-snap season in 2021, Jackson hit a career-high with an 85.8 coverage grade. According to PFF, he allowed a 65.1 passer rating when targeted—the 10th-best amongst all cornerbacks with at least 100 coverage snaps.

Brown now has three top-two finishes for Carolina in his last three full seasons. He had the Panthers' top overall defensive grade in 2022 (84.4) and 2023 (90.1).

 

Worst of the defense

17. OLB Princely Umanmielen: 49.8

18. ILB Christian Rozeboom: 48.4

19. DL LaBryan Ray: 45.7

20. ILB Krys Barnes: 43.9

21. DL Tershawn Wharton: 43.0

Wharton's 34.5 run defense grade was the worst amongst all 31 players who recorded a defensive snap for Carolina in 2025.

Rozeboom tied for a team-high 19 missed tackles.

I don’t think they’ll make the two first round pick plus mega deal super swap that people think of when you say “all in” but I absolutely think they’ll reconsider the platoon strategy when it comes to signing free agents this offseason

shouldve just given Milton Williams a little extra

I don’t think he really wanted to be in Carolina…not sure Evero was much of a selling point.   That’s just me though.  I’m prejudiced

      All three were horrendous though.  A Stroud sucks too the pain of the Bryce trade is watching a home town kid go to the Patriots and in all likelihood make a SB appearance in his second year....

      Could Morgan be eyeing Trey Hendrickson

      By Jackson113.2 · Posted

      Carolina Panthers projected to take massive swing for Trey Hendrickson in free agency And one ESPN analyst believes the Panthers have a clear path to one blockbuster free-agent signing that would shake the NFL to its foundations. Aaron Schatz thought the Panthers make a ton of sense for edge rusher Trey Hendrickson, whose time with the Cincinnati Bengals looks up. This isn't the sort of signing Morgan typically goes for, but Carolina is ready to win now. That changes the landscape considerably. Acquiring Hendrickson won't be cheap. The NFL's sack leader in 2023 and 2024 should be in high demand on the open market, and the Bengals will likely allow him to explore other employment opportunities. It would be an all-in move from Morgan, but the rewards might be substantial as the Panthers look to get over the hump. Hendrickson is an elite pass-rusher. His relentless motor, exceptional technique, and violent hands make him a legitimate force that very few around the league can match. He may be 31 years old now, but there is nothing to suggest that he cannot keep performing well at the tail-end of his playing journey. According to Spotrac, Hendrickson is expected to command an annual salary of $25.44 million on a two-year, $50.89 million deal. The Panthers would have to move some money around to make it work, but now is the time to strike after winning the NFC South and making the playoffs in 2025.
