The 2018 Panthers draft class left a great impression.
The Carolina Panthers had a season of ups and downs in 2018. Well the majority of the season was disappointing due to an extensive losing streak, there were some positives. One of those was the play of the 2018 rookies. In April, Marty Hurney constructed a draft class with both sides of the football in mind. Evidently, he knew that they needed to get younger at some positions, and he knew that they needed impact playmakers. He managed to get both. Not only that, he managed to get players who can play right away. For that, he must be commended for his efforts.
Three rookies in particular made an impact for the Panthers. All of of them could be franchise cornerstones for another organization, and all of them figure to be around the Panthers organization for a long time. With the organization not having successful draft classes the past couple of years, seeing Carolina be able to call this one a success is certainly a positive. In a year where many veterans are getting older, they needed to make sure that they drafted responsibly and effectively. They certainly did that here.
Without further ado, we take a look at three rookies made the biggest impact in 2018.
