The Carolina Panthers finally upgraded at quarterback with the acquisition of Baker Mayfield, and the entire roster should receive a boost for fantasy purposes.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported the Panthers' trade on Wednesday, sending a conditional fifth-round pick to the Cleveland Browns in exchange for Mayfield. It ends months of speculation about a potential deal, giving Carolina a proven option under center after multiple seasons worth of quarterback inconsistency.
It should provide a major boost to DJ Moore for next season while receivers Robby Anderson and Terrace Marshall Jr. should also see better numbers.
