The Panthers can benefit from veteran wide receiver Torrey Smith on and off the field.
Since the Saints picked up Ted Ginn Jr. in free agency, the Panthers have needed a deep threat. Smith is slotted to be that guy.
Carolina acquired Smith in the offseason from Philadelphia in exchange for Daryl Worley. Over the years, Smith has established himself as a potent deep threat. In 2015 while playing with the 49ers, he led the league with yards per receptions. Last year with the Eagles, things were relatively quiet for the 29-year-old during the regular season.
