The pundits are split on who the Panthers should take with the No. 16 pick in the draft." Panthers 2019 NFL DraftCarolina Panthers add pass rush Jarius Wright Jersey , offensive line help in latest mock draft round-upNew,45commentsThe pundits are split on who the Panthers should take with the No. 16 pick in the draft. EDTThe Carolina Panthers have addressed some of their needs at the pass rush and on the offensive line with some new additions. But the Panthers could still benefit from other long term options and have also been vocal about their want to protect Cam Newton in the upcoming season. It’ll be interesting to see which position Carolina goes after first in the NFL Draft in a few weeks.In Dan Kadar’s latest mock draft for SB Nation, he predicts Marty Hurney will go after big man defensive end Clelin Ferrell with the No. 16 pick.In my opinion, this would be a huge win for the Panthers to nab Ferrell if he’s still available. He’s versatile in any defensive scheme and is nothing short of a physical beast. What others are sayingWalter Football agrees with Kadar that Panthers will grab a dynamic pass rusher. However, Charlie Campbell predicts Panthers will add more depth to the offensive line. NFL Network analyst Charles Davis predicts that edge rusher Burns will be taken https://www.carolinapanthersfanshop.com/Da_Norris-Searcy-Jersey , allowing room for another offensive tackle. Chris Traspasso from CBS Sports believes Ron Rivera will want to add more talent for Newton to pass to. Vinnie Iyer at Sporting News can also see Panthers adding another receiver to the depth chart. What do you think, Panthers fans? Which pick do you like the most? The Panthers are traveling to FedEx Field in Landover, Maryland to play Washington on Sunday.This is a game with completely different stakes for each side, even though both teams currently sit at second place in their respective divisions. Carolina has struggled in each of its wins, but sits in good position at 3-1 to challenge for the NFC South title or Greg Van Roten Color Rush Jersey , at worst, a wild card spot. Washington is in a division that would be a race for the bottom if the Giants hadn’t jumped the gun and already built an insurmountable tally of losses. They need a win against the Panthers to have any hope of catching the Eagles whereas the Panthers need a solid showing to build confidence before running into the toughest half of their 2018 schedule. Here are 3 things you should know before the game kicks off:FedEx Field has a terrible reputationThe artificial surface that games are played on in Maryland is routinely criticized as among the worst in the NFL. It may be second only to Oakland, which is an actual baseball stadium. Washington, as with many of its chronic problems, has only itself to blame. What does this mean for Sunday?Expect Greg Olsen’s return https://www.carolinapanthersfanshop.com , if it happens, to exceed the definition of ‘limited’. Their field has long been a magnet for injuries and the Panthers won’t want to risk Olsen breaking his foot for a third time in the last year.You can’t expect the Panthers to be bailed out by any late game, long distance heroics by Graham Gano. Gano spent his first three years in the NFL as Washington’s kicker. He was neither the first nor the last kicker to complain about the field conditions in that stadium. His complaints are backed up by numbers —so here is your trigger warning for documented facts— as he has made only 73% of his 45 career field goal attempts in FedEx Field, a full 9% lower than his overall career rate.The Washington offense wants to make up for last weekThey put up 9 points against the Saints. Sure, they were on the road Carolina Panthers Customized Jerseys , but they were playing the Saints. New Orleans wouldn’t know a defense if it walked up to Drew Brees and started catching passes for an absurd number of yards and touchdowns despite not having much talent. Don’t let Ron Rivera read this, but Washington might be the safest team to nurse a one score lead against. They know they need to be better and the Panthers are always happy to let underdogs punch above their weight class.This should be an easy week of prep for the Panthers. They are coming off of three weeks against Julio Jones, AJ Green, and Odell Beckham, Jr. I just googled Washington’s receivers and I still can’t tell you much about who they are. I’ve heard of Jamison Crowder Carolina Panthers T-Shirts , but he is their fifth receiver by yards this year. He’s behind a tight end and two running backs. This should terrify you as a Panthers fan. The Giants are hapless and captained by a quarterback who peaked 7 years ago. Eli Manning looked poised and accurate last week. The Panthers are known for finding a way to keep a game interesting long after it should have been over. This Washington team should have the drive to take advantage of whatever opportunities the Panthers leave on the field.Stop me if you’ve heard this before, Washington is a little banged up right nowTheir top three wide receivers, Paul Richardson, Crowder, and Josh Doctson are all questionable this week. Doctson missed Monday night’s game with a heel injury that is expected to plague him all season. Richardson and Crowder didn’t even participate in a walk-through practice Wednesday. Adrian Peterson is also listed as questionable https://www.carolinapanthersfanshop.com/hats , though he is expected to play through ankle, knee, and shoulder injuries.Washington’s defense is mostly in tact. In spite of rolling out the red carpet for the Saints last week, the unit is still 5th overall in total defense in the NFL. Josh Norman will be looking to make amends for some big miscues in coverage last week that opened up the field for Drew Brees. Let’s not forget how familiar Norman is with the Panthers risk-adverse offense. A new coordinator doesn’t mean that much when Norv Turner was hired to run the same offense that Mike Shula was fired over.
