Louis Riddick Touts Panthers' Staff: 'I Would Be Praying for Them to Draft Me'
By the end of this month's draft, there may not be a team that has improved more since the end of last season than the Carolina Panthers.
Not only have they made some key additions to the roster by signing RB Miles Sanders, WRs DJ Chark and Adam Thielen, TE Hayden Hurst, DL Shy Tuttle, and S Vonn Bell, but they have assembled arguably the best coaching staff in the entire league.
To show they are ready to take the next step, they traded up to the No. 1 spot in the draft to land the quarterback of their future and it goes without saying he'll be set up for success right out of the gate.
But it's not all about the No. 1 pick.
The Panthers were able to keep their second and third-round picks and have a total of four picks in the top 115 selections. After they make the decision between Bryce Young and C.J. Stroud, the Panthers can take the best player available thanks to addressing their needs in free agency.
ESPN NFL Analyst Louis Riddick took to Twitter to express his belief in the Panthers' organization moving forward.
"Take a look at the Carolina Panthers coaching staff. There is no doubt in my mind they are uniquely positioned to maximize their picks in this draft in terms of development and utilization as well as any team in the NFL. Multiple serious high-level HC candidates on staff. I would be praying for them to draft me."
