The last three drafts that the Carolina Panthers have had a top ten pick they have capitalized by taking quarterback Cam Newton (No. 1) in 2011, linebacker Luke Kuechly (No. 9) in 2012 and running back Christian McCaffrey (No. 8) in 2017.
This year they hold the No. 7 pick and look to continue their first-round success.
Most mock drafts have LSU quarterback Joe Burrow locked into going No. 1 overall to the Cincinnati Bengals. Ohio State’s edge-rusher Chase Young seems to be the consensus No.
