The Panthers need to get better and younger on both sides of the line of scrimmage this offseason.
In our latest seven-round 2020 mock draft, our strategy was to select the best lineman available in the first three rounds, then move on to other concerns on the roster. Here’s how it played out.
No. 7: Iowa OT Tristan Wirfs
There are so many significant roster holes for Carolina to fill this offseason that it’s difficult to even know where to begin. That said, it’s tough to pass on a prospect like Wirfs. He has the size (6-foot-5, 322 pounds), build, polish and athleticism to be a difference maker at the next level right away. If the Panthers want to keep their current starting right tackle Taylor Moton, they could slide Wirfs inside and fill their hole at left guard.
