In this story:

With the 33rd pick of the 2024 NFL Draft, the Carolina Panthers select... Adonai Mitchell, wide receiver, Texas. 

In CBS Sports' latest two-round mock draft, former Vikings general manager Rick Spielman projects the Panthers to select the 6'4", 190-pounder just ahead of his teammate, Xavier Worthy. In 14 games this season with the Longhorns, Mitchell caught 55 passes for 845 yards and eleven touchdowns. 

Below, you'll find a piece of a scouting report on Mitchell from Keith Sanchez of Draft Network.

"At 6-foot-3 and 195 pounds, Adonai Mitchell has an ideal frame with above-average measurables (height, wingspan). Along with those measurables, Mitchell shows to be an above-average athlete. That shows in his ability to effectively run routes, get separation from defenders, and be a reliable target for the quarterback."

"Mitchell appears to be most effective against off-coverage. Working against off-coverage, Mitchell shows the ability to quickly accelerate off the line of scrimmage and immediately start to set the defender up. Mitchell understands how to and the purpose of properly stemming defenders and remaining in leverage to present a two-way option to defenders trying to cover him."
