This week’s Mock Talk has me feeling a little hungry.
Two national draft analysts have released mock drafts with defensive end Taco Charlton as the pick for the Panthers – and one other analyst also wants an edge rusher at No. 8 in Carolina, but not the one most would think ...
Let’s see the first-round picks.
What Mel Kiper (ESPN Draft Analyst) thinks: Taco Charlton, defensive end, Michigan.
“The Panthers need a pass-rusher, and Charlton has put himself in this value range,” said Kiper, in his Mock Draft 2.0, also citing Charlton’s length (he’s 6-foot-6) and 280-pound frame as beneficial to what the Panthers are looking for in their 4-3 scheme.
