NBC Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- The Carolina Panthers have met with top wide receiver prospects and are considering using a first-round pick on a wideout for the third consecutive year.
- General Manager Dan Morgan stated they will prioritize selecting the best player available at No. 19 overall, even if it means drafting another wide receiver despite having recent picks at the position.
- Morgan emphasized there is no rule against drafting wide receivers in three straight first rounds and they will not limit their options based on past selections.
- Historical precedent from the Detroit Lions shows mixed results when drafting wide receivers in consecutive first rounds, but Panthers' decisions will focus on supporting quarterback Bryce Young’s development.
