At this point it wouldn't surprise me if one of our draftees doesn't make the roster...

Will be hot competition at CB in Spartanburg.  Good.

Would be a first for Gettleman. 

 

Personally, I think Wegher or CAP is the odd man out.

We did also carry 10 DBs. It can work out any way they see fit, but I can see Bene, Boykin and McClain with the 3 picks at CB and 4 Safeties. That would be 10 in total. McClain can be the vet that can play outside in nickel and dime. Bradberry's ability to play both CB and S can help too.

That totals 5 CB's. 

 

Last year the Panthers kept 4 CB's. 

 

Chances of picking up another via free agency just dropped to nearly zero. 

 

Also, terrible news for McClain and Teddy. 

Whats the chances one could get moved over to safety?

Could be. 

But picking 3 CBs in a row is also a first for G'man.  He's not as predictable as some of us thought!

Teddy drove me insane with his bone-headed penalties on special teams. I've read that Worley is a great special teamer as well. McClain performed admirably for being plucked off the street but the writing is on the wall for him now. Competition at the corner position may be at an all-time high in Spartanburg this summer and I ain't mad about it.

What do you think the chances are that one of the draft picks could be considered for safety?

      I’m guessing both.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      https://nfltraderumors.co/2026-nfl-draft-grades-for-all-32-teams/      Grade: B+ Best Pick: Sam Hecht Biggest Reach (consensus rank): Jackson Kuwatch (NR) It's easy to love what Carolina did. The Panthers traded four times but ended the draft with the same number of selections that they started with and in approximately the same ranges. They did not take a player ahead of the consensus until Kuwatch at No. 227, and it's easy to see how he fell through the cracks playing at Miami of Ohio. He's a high-end athlete, though, and has a chance to develop, which is a fine profile for a seventh-rounder. Freeling and Brazzell also checked the high-end athleticism upside boxes for the Panthers. Carolina let the board come to them in the first round and could have a long-term solution at left tackle, which is a hard position to fill. Brazzell slid because of some maturity concerns as well as the difficulty in projecting receivers from Tennessee's Mickey Mouse offense. At 6-4, 200 pounds and 4.37 in the 40, though, the upside is undeniable. On top of that, the landed three starters on Day 3. Normally that's a high and unrealistic bar, but Hecht and Wheatley were both firmly inside the top 100 on the consensus board and have paths to win starting competitions. Lee fits the scheme well and has some interesting traits as an outside corner. What stopped me from a full-out A grade is not loving the Hunter pick, though he does fill a need to replace DT A'Shawn Robinson. There were prospects at other needs positions I would have been more jazzed about. The Brazzell pick is also an interesting risk for a team that's still in building mode, even coming off an NFC South title. Still, I'm nitpicking

      I was just a teenager when I joined in 2013. I've loved the many opinions on this forum, even though several are infuriating. I've had several bad takes, myself,  that I've hopefully grown out of over the years.
