The Carolina Panthers are facing a significant need for edge rushers, highlighted by their struggles to generate consistent pressure last season. Current players Jadeveon Clowney and DJ Wonnum have shown some potential, but they are not reliable options moving forward. The Panthers may explore free agency, with Khalil Mack as a possible short-term solution. Additionally, they might consider drafting prospects like Abdul Carter, James Pearce Jr., or Jalon Walker, although their options could be limited.

Another interesting yet controversial possibility is the potential acquisition of Von Miller, should he be released by the Buffalo Bills. While Miller's past performances raise concern for Panthers fans, especially given his role in their Super Bowl loss years ago, his experience could benefit younger players. As the team eyes the future, they must balance immediate needs against long-term goals.
