Carolina Panthers: 2013 NFL Draft do-over (5 rounds)

The 2013 NFL Draft was loaded with talent. In recent drafts, quarterbacks were the sought-after position in the first round with players like Cam Newton, Andrew Luck, and Robert Griffin III.

That was not the case in 2013. The only quarterback selected in the first round was E.J. Manuel by the Buffalo Bills with the 16th pick. Manuel didn’t turn into the star the Bills hoped he would.

The position with the most talent in this draft were offensive linemen. In the first round there were nine selected including some of the best in the league today like Lane Johnson and recently retired stars, Travis Frederick and Kyle Long.
