Dionate Johnson/Donte Jackson trade grades: Who won the Panthers - Steelers deal?

After a tough start to the 2024 NFL offseason, the Carolina Panthers finally got a big win.

The team finally added a top option at wide receiver by trading for Pittsburgh Steelers wideout Diontae Johnson, per multiple reports. Carolina sent cornerback Donte Jackson to Pittsburgh as part of the deal, which also involved a low-round pick swap.

So, essentially, the Panthers add who will likely be their WR1 this season in exchange for a player with the inside track to be the Steelers’ CB2 opposite Joey Porter Jr. However, there is one side that feels like a clear winner here and another side that feels like it could’ve done so much better.

Let’s break down this latest 2024 NFL trade and see who came out on top between the Panthers and Steelers.
