The Panthers first-round draft pick from the spring is obviously going to be watched closely during training camp and preseason games. Carolina needs an explosive option at the wide receiver position along with Devin Funchess and the veteran addition of Torrey Smith (another newcomer).

D.J. Moore is expected to provide that option. The first wide receiver taken in the draft, Carolina had their choice of prospects at the position and elected to choose Moore. He has received high praise to this point but how he performs over the next few weeks and into the regular season will definitely be something to watch.
