The Carolina Panthers made a bold decision last offseason when they chose to part ways with emerging edge rusher Brian Burns rather than offer him a lucrative $30 million per year contract. This choice created a significant void at the edge rusher position, which the Panthers struggled to fill during the 2024 season. Now, with the draft approaching and a strong class of edge rushers available, the Panthers find themselves in a position to select one with the eighth overall pick. The question remains: Is that the best choice for Carolina, especially after investing considerable resources into their defense this offseason, including at the edge rusher position? Julian Council examines the pros and cons of the Panthers selecting an edge rusher at the eighth pick. Two potential candidates for Carolina are standout players from Georgia: Jalon Walker and Mykell Williams. Julian is joined by Clint Shamblin, the host of Locked on Bulldogs, to discuss what Walker and Williams could bring to the Panthers if chosen. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Carolina Panthers sit with the 8th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. While Carolina is in a good position to land an impact player, recent news suggests that a team in the Top 10 may not be looking to draft a QB after recent moves. In the past week, the New York Giants have signed Jameis Winston and Russell Wilson to free-agent deals, calling into question the organization's interest in Shedeur Sanders. If the Giants are prepared to pass on Sanders, could this open the door for the team to trade back? If so, could Carolina secure a trade-up and land the top edge-rushing talent in the draft class in Abdul Carter? The Panthers enter the draft season with a trio of linebackers prepared to compete for the starting spots: second-year Trevin Wallace and veterans Josey Jewell and Christian Rozeboom. While the Panthers have experienced options at the position, could there be interest in Alabama's Jihaad Campbell to raise the ceiling at linebacker? In Year 1 of the Dave Canales- Dan Morgan head coach-general manager partnership, the Panthers finished with a 5-12 record after a shaky start to the 2024 season. Knowing how impatient Panthers owner David Tepper has been in the past, is there significant pressure on Canales and Morgan to exceed 2024's win total this fall?

Carolina Panthers General Manager Dan Morgan met with the media on Wednesday to discuss the team's free agency moves and to look ahead to the upcoming draft in April. During the press conference, Morgan highlighted how free agency has positioned the organization for flexibility as the draft approaches. However, he noted the need to strengthen the safety position and expressed a desire to acquire more playmakers, particularly at wide receiver. Has safety become one of the most pressing roster needs for the Panthers as they enter the draft season? Additionally, Panthers Executive Vice President Brandt Tillis addressed the media, explaining why negotiations with free agent defensive tackle Milton Williams fell through. He also discussed the rationale behind awarding Jaycee Horn a record-setting contract and provided an update on the team's salary cap situation as they prepare for the draft.

The Carolina Panthers will face a significant decision on the first night of the 2025 NFL Draft, as they are set to select eighth overall. While the Panthers are in a favorable position to pick a top-tier player, this draft class is considered to have only a handful of elite talents. Should the Panthers consider trading back to acquire additional draft capital if their top choices are unavailable by the time they pick at eighth? If the Panthers trade back, who might still be available later in the first round? Is trading back the best option, given that the Panthers need to add premium talent throughout their roster? Julian Council discusses the Panthers' options for trading back in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Carolina Panthers hosted two veteran safeties on Monday as the team continues evaluating potential additions to the defense ahead of the draft. Former Indianapolis Colt Julian Blackmon and former New Orleans Saint Marcus Williams were the players Carolina brought in for assessment. Will one of them ultimately sign with Carolina? If the Panthers sign either Blackmon, Williams or another veteran, how would that affect their draft strategy? Would adding a younger option with an eye toward the future make sense? Julian Council assesses the two veteran options and draft possibilities for the Panthers at safety. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Carolina Panthers are officially one month away from the start of the 2025 NFL Draft. Following Free Agency, the Panthers have identified several players who they hope will fill the gaps on defense that were apparent last year, while also returning several key players for the upcoming season. Have the Panthers positioned themselves to select the best player available once the draft begins? What are the Panthers' biggest needs as the offseason progresses and the draft approaches? Have they adequately addressed the wide receiver and edge rusher positions during this offseason? Will there be any surprise draft picks on Day 2, similar to what happened last year? Julian Council shares his initial thoughts on how the Carolina Panthers should approach the 2025 NFL Draft. FANDUEL DISCLAIMER: 21+ in select states. First online real money wager only.

So far this offseason, the Carolina Panthers have not invested significantly in the wide receiver position. While that's the case, Panthers GM Dan Morgan stated at the NFL Combine how much he loves the trio of Adam Thielen, Xavier Leggette, and Jalen Coker. The free-agent receiver market also hasn't produced a bunch of high-end options for Carolina to pursue. Despite all that, would it be a mistake for Carolina not to make a significant addition to the group to aid Bryce Young in 2025? The Panthers have options with the eighth overall pick. Currently, the NFL media believes the most likely choice that they'll make is selecting Jalon Walker. Why is Walker the consensus pick for the Panthers? Julian Council answers these questions, among other listener questions, in this week's edition of the Weekly Friday Mailbag. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

On Tuesday afternoon, the Carolina Panthers announced they had added another wide receiver to their roster, reaching an agreement with David Moore for him to return for a second season in Carolina. Meanwhile, in Cincinnati, the Bengals held a press conference to announce Tee Higgins' contract extension following an agreement reached earlier this week.

The Panthers have been active this offseason, adding key pieces to their defense while also re-signing and extending important players ahead of the draft season. Julian Council has provided an update on his Offseason To-Do List, discussing what other moves the Panthers should consider.
