The Carolina Panthers are poised to strengthen their offense by focusing on adding a pass catcher early in the 2025 NFL draft, potentially targeting a wide receiver or tight end. With the eighth overall pick, the Panthers are weighing their options, including top prospects like Arizona's Tetairoa McMillan and Penn State's Tyler Warren. Head coach Dave Canales expressed satisfaction with the current offensive lineup, hinting that the Panthers might not rush into a selection.

However, if they wish to secure a top talent, they might need to utilize their eighth pick. Trading down is also a possibility, which could open up opportunities for other intriguing prospects like Michigan’s Colston Loveland or LSU’s Mason Taylor. Besides the eighth pick, the Panthers hold the 57th and 74th overall selections, providing them with various avenues to enhance their roster.
