On the defensive end class in this draft
“There’s a nice group there. With a 4-3 defense they’re a little harder to find because there’s certain physical attributes you’re looking for right off the bat. There’s some interesting guys there, … And very honestly, I’m excited to see what Arthur Miley’s going to do. And what Rakim Cox is going to do.”
What it may mean
Even if the Panthers add a defensive end or two in the draft, that’s not a position where guys come in and produce right away. Considering they’ve never played in a regular-season game, Miley and Cox still have a ways to go, too. As excited as Gettleman may be about potential answers on the roster, this is a spot that needs at least one free agent addition.
Hopefully Tolbert sticks around, he adds a lot to the most complex running game in the NFL. It will be interesting to see what happens with him and Big Money. Very interested in what kind of talent is added at the tackle position, even if they aren’t instant starters. Today is Josh Norman “tag day!”
