Panthers' Free Agency Moves, Draft Strategy

The Carolina Panthers kicked off free agency with a bang, signing top defensive stars Jaelan Phillips and Devin Lloyd, and quarterback Kenny Pickett on a short-term deal. The team restructured contracts and released players to create cap space, addressing big needs at tackle, center, and tight end. Fans are optimistic, projecting around nine wins, with the defense carrying the load while the offense builds. The nineteenth overall pick could go to instant impact players like offensive tackle Kenyon Sadiq or wide receiver Makai Lemon.
