The Panthers finally made a splash at the end of the second round, trading up with the Seahawks to take one of this year’s most exciting small school prospects, Southern Illinois defensive back Jeremy Chinn.
Adding Chinn to the defense will help take some of the sting out of passing on Clemson’s Isaiah Simmons in the first round. His ability to line up at several different spots (slot corner, outside corner, box safety and deep safety) will be a huge benefit for a unit that needs help at all of those spots.
Carolina fans are digging the pick. Here’s what they are saying on Twitter.
Jeremy Chinn is a beast LETS GOOOO!! #KeepPounding

Jeremy Chinn, a safety at 6'3" 221lbs with a 41" vertical that runs a 4.45. Strong, athletic, fast. What a pick.

#Panthers got the Day 2 versions of Isaiah Simmons with Jeremy Chinn at 64.
That’s a damn good pick.

Jeremy Chinn will be huge in Phil Snows defense. I’ve told you before we need an athletic safety to run his defense properly because he uses them in so many ways.

Jeremy Chinn is our Isiah Simmons..guarantee he puts up similar stats as Simmons this year.

Jeremy Chinn 👍. Love the versatility in the secondary. Helps relieve a little pain suffered when they passed on Simmons. A little…

The fact that we basically traded Kyle Allen for Jeremy Chinn makes me giddy with happiness.

Don't love trading up, but Jeremy Chinn is a baller. He's a 99th percentile athlete, tied for the best in the class for the safety position with new New England Patriot Kyle Dugger.

Jeremy Chinn is a star I can’t wait to see these boys play this the best I’ve felt about a draft in a while lol I’m lit
