Carolina Panthers use 3rd-round draft pick on QB Matt Corral amid Baker Mayfield trade speculation

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- With reports swirling Friday night that the Carolina Panthers could trade for disgruntled Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield, general manager Scott Fitterer waited patiently and traded into the third round for Ole Miss' Matt Corral.

While Fitterer didn't completely rule out adding a veteran to the quarterback room that now includes Sam Darnold, P.J. Walker and Corral, he emphatically said the Panthers are "happy with the group we have."

"I never put an absolute on anything," Fitterer said after Day 2 of the NFL draft.
