CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Don’t necessarily look for the Carolina Panthers to select a cornerback in the first round of the April 28-30 draft just because they moved on from Josh Norman.
Listening to general manager Gettleman and coach Ron Rivera talk about the decision to rescind the franchise tag on the 2015 Pro Bowl selection it didn’t sound like they were overly concerned with replacing him.
Much less use the 30th pick to do that.
“It does create a little hole,’’ Rivera said on Thursday.
Little seems like an understatement for a player Carolina was willing to pay $13.
