The Carolina Panthers are making ripples in the 2025 NFL draft headlines with some intriguing discussions around potential draft picks. According to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, the Panthers expressed serious interest in Missouri's Armand Membou, a right tackle, should he have been available. This interest may stem from uncertainties about Taylor Moton's future, as he enters the final year of his contract. While the Panthers ultimately selected wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan at No. 8, their exploration of the tackle position indicates a strategic approach in preparing for potential roster changes. General Manager Dan Morgan has emphasized the team's commitment to evaluating Moton’s situation while focusing on the current season.
