It is proving to be a terrible looking class of 2017 overall from a first-round selection perspective. While other teams might be regretting some of their choices, the came cannot be said of the Carolina Panthers.
Three years to the day they signed their rookie running back Christian McCaffrey to his deal, only 15 his fellow first-rounders have had their fifth-year options picked up. The former No. 8 overall pick out of Stanford is the only player in this particular group that has currently received an extension.
That is sure to change in the not-too-distant future as speculation mounts regarding a blockbuster contract for Super Bowl-winning quarterback Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs, who was taken two spots behind McCaffrey at ten.
