2018 NFL Draft: Carolina Panthers take a cornerback in Dan Kadar’s latest mock
Dan Kadar from Mocking the Draft has shared his latest mock, and at No. 24 overall he gives the Carolina Panthers another young cornerback to add to their secondary.
24. Carolina Panthers: Mike Hughes, CB, Central Florida
The Panthers wanted to sign Bashaud Breeland, but his deal was voided due to a failed medical. Fortunately this is a prime spot in the draft to land a starting cornerback. Hughes is a feisty outside cornerback with instincts. He may remind Panthers fans of Josh Norman.
WalterFootball ranks Hughes as the No. 3 cornerback in this year’s draft class and has a first-second round grade on him.
