The last time we published a projected 2020 depth chart for the Panthers, it was a mess. There were massive holes at guard, cornerback and along the defensive line. Now that the NFL draft is over, things are much clearer. In addition to an all-defense draft class, the team has signed 17 undrafted free agents and a few veterans to help round out the roster.
Here is our best guess at what the depth chart looks like right now.
