The Carolina Panthers don’t have a definitive solution to their quarterback problem yet. One option is to draft a rookie playmaker. To that end, some of the top prospects are now looking at the team.
Munich/Charlotte – Who will be on the field at quarterback for the Carolina Panthers next season? That question has been on the franchise’s mind for some time now.
General Manager Scott Fitterer recently stated that while the team does not want to force the draft of a playmaker, they also do not have a long-term answer at the position. According to the statement, they would have to “take a shot at some point” when selecting a player in the first round of the draft .
In this year’s talent draft, the Panthers can select at position six – possibly a good opportunity to secure a signal caller. But which one might be the right one?
Six quarterbacks to visit Panthers
It was reported earlier Monday that Liberty quarterback Malik Willis will visit the franchise this week.
Now Sports Illustrated writes that the youngster should have plenty of company. According to the article, a total of six top quarterback prospects will pay the team a visit. In addition to Willis, Kenny Pickett (Pittsburgh Panthers), Matt Corral (Ole Miss Rebels), Desmond Ridder (Cincinnati), Sam Howell (North Carolina) and Bailey Zappe (Western Kentucky) are also waiting in the wings.
Currently, Sam Darnold would be the starting quarterback for the Panthers. Recently, there have also been reports of Cam Newton returning to the team.
