The Carolina Panthers made waves by remaining silent at the NFL trade deadline, despite having players like D. J. Wonnum, Nick Scott, and Hunter Renfrow who could have fetched draft picks. The team, currently in the playoff hunt, chose a cautious, long-term approach over immediate upgrades. This strategy was evident when they didn't pursue New York Giants linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux, who could have bolstered their struggling edge rushing. The Panthers, with the second-worst pressure rate in the NFL, seem set to address their edge rusher situation again in the upcoming draft, possibly even in the first round.
