Why
Carolina needs to reinforce WR and EDGE; neither position currently boasts a clear starter or reliable depth. Beyond that, CB and LB also require competition to avoid falling short in the medium term.

Track record read
Under Dan Morgan, the Panthers prioritize offense, seeking explosive receivers and versatile RBs, clearly aiming to surround their QB with talent. Recent trench picks on both sides of the ball confirm a build-from-the-lines approach, even with aggressive decisions like a second-round RB. The team appears unafraid to gamble on high-upside talent, regardless of college or conference.
The board · Rounds 1–7
Three names per every pick.
Only the rounds where the team owns a pick (per Tankathon). A blend of need plus best value on the board.
First round
3 names
Jeremiah Smith
Ohio State
WRSmith es el WR1 que te cambia la ofensiva. El prototipo 'X' con manos y el techo para ser el mejor en su posición.
Colin Simmons
Texas
EDGETrae ese pop en el borde que ahora mismo brilla por su ausencia. Su techo es altísimo, pero el ancla contra carrera determinará si es estrella o rotación.
Leonard Moore
Notre Dame
CBParche inmediato en el secundario, su techo es elite en corner exterior. Si limita los 'grabs', tiene pinta de All-Pro.
Second round
1 name
Third round
3 names
Wyatt Young
Oklahoma State
WRYoung es el slot fiable que necesitaban, un 'chain-mover' de verdad. Floor buenísimo, el techo dependerá si consigue separation constante.
Clev Lubin
Louisville
EDGETrae un edge setter que no hay en el roster. Tiene techo de primer rusher si pule sus manos, pero necesita currar.
Brice Pollock
Texas Tech
CBParche plug-and-play en un esquinero que sabe correr rutas; el floor es alto en cobertura, solo el play strength genera dudas.
