Carolina Panthers: Troy Pride Jr. could be option for secondary

The Carolina Panthers have a lot of decisions to make in the NFL Draft. They have many needs to fill, and only so many draft slots to fill them. In one of their most recent mock drafts, the Charlotte Observer had an interesting fifth-round pick for Carolina.

The pick in question is Notre Dame cornerback Troy Pride Jr. He could immediately fill a projected need in the secondary. There are questions as to whether the Carolina Panthers will pay James Bradberry. His franchise tack is going to cost a reported $16 million. For a rebuilding team like the Panthers, they could probably use that money somewhere else.
