Carolina Panthers: Isaiah Simmons can be Gronkowski’s kryptonite

The high-profile arrival to the NFC South of tight end Rob Gronkowski could see the Carolina Panthers change their NFL Draft strategy.

He has the potential to be a huge difference-maker for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers if the player is anything like the one that retired after the 2018 season. The division is going to be decided by fine margins next term and Gronkowski could be the man that gives Tom Brady’s Bucs’ the edge.

Carolina is an expected also-ran within the NFC South next season. But that does not mean they don’t have to counteract the threat posed by someone with the dominant presence of Gronkowski.
