The Panthers have picked Penn State EDGE Yetur Gross-Matos with the No. 38 overall pick in the 2020 NFL draft.
Gross-Matos (6-foot-5, 266 pounds) is one of the top pass-rushing prospects in this class. Over his last two college seasons, he totaled 17.5 sacks and 34.5 tackles for a loss. At the combine, he posted 20 bench press reps, a 34 inch vertical and a 120 inch broad jump – respectable athleticism for a player his size. He measured in with 34 7/8” arms and 9 3/4” hands.
While Gross-Matos didn’t play for Matt Rhule in college, they share a connection as Rhule also went to Penn State.
Now that the Panthers have hit their holes on the defensive line, it’s time to get to work fixing that secondary.
