It's okay to start firing up a 2025 NFL Mock Draft or two if you are a fan of the Carolina Panthers. While they likely will have the first pick in the draft after benching Bryce Young already, will they really use the pick on another quarterback like Georgia's Carson Beck? It's unlikely. This is not a great quarterback class, and the Panthers are clearly not just a quarterback away from being a competitive football team. Unless Andy Dalton comes in and lights it up after being named the starting quarterback, the Panthers will prove to be multiple years away. This means they may want to spends some time on other foundational players at priority positions. So what will the Panthers do then if they come on the clock with the No. 1 pick once again? Using PFF's mock draft simulator, we've cooked up a new mock draft for you. Draft positioning is still currently set by odds to win the Super Bowl this early in the season.
