1st Round

Fuller fills the need. I do know that this may be a reach to bring him into the first round, but he is unlikely to still be there as the Panthers move through round 2.

3rd Round

With defensive end, cornerback, and offensive line addressed the Panthers can spend day three looking for gems in the draft.
