Yet another new addition to the Carolina offense, the Panthers spent their first-round pick on the hometown kid, University of South Carolina's Xavier Legette.
Legette provided scouts with a controversial prospect profile. He put together an impressive highlight reel last season. However, some of his advanced metrics were not what you are looking for out of an alpha, X receiver. It was also concerning that Legette never had more than 200 yards in a season prior to his fifth-year breakout.
Despite these red flags, the Panthers selected Legette in hopes that he could be an effective big-bodied, vertical receiver alongside Diontae Johnson.
I have issues with Legette's prospect profile and am hesitant about what kind of value the vertical threat receiver on this offense will provide. However, if you want to take a chance on Legette he can be drafted as a bench asset with a price tag of WR58.

 Diontae Johnson, Adam Thielen ruled out for Week 8
Panthers thin at WR
By: Mike Krueger | Fri Oct 25, 12:34 pm
|  | The #Panthers ruled out WRs Diontae Johnson (rib) and WR Adam Thielen (hamstring), while QB Andy Dalton (right thumb) is doubtful.
So it'll be Bryce Young throwing to backup receivers on Sunday in Denver. (Tom Pelissero on X)
FFToday's Take: Welcome back to the starting lineup Bryce Young! Without Johnson and Thielen, the Panthers will roll out a receiving corps of Xavier Legette, Jalen Coker and Jonathan Mingo. All of these guys can be avoided in a bad matchup against the Broncos defense.
