Evaluating the Panthers flurry of trades in the draft last night

It turns out the Carolina Panthers big trade to move one spot up and into the first round on Thursday night was just a harbinger of the draft strategy that general manager Dan Morgan honed while watching his former boss Scott Fitterer at work. Three more trades occurred in the second and third rounds last night that saw the Panthers bouncing all over the draft board.

Ultimately, they walked away with their RB1 in Jonathon Brooks and a linebacker they apparently liked in Trevin Wallace. That, after cycling through a dizzying series of picks like they were playing three card monty with the rest of the league.
