This wouldn't be the time that the Panthers and Giants converge on a major deal centered on a pass rusher. The two teams struck a blockbuster trade last spring, when Carolina traded away two-time Pro Bowler Brian Burns to New York.

Heading into the 2025 NFL draft, the Carolina Panthers roster has a lot of holes to fill. Offensively, they're going to need a wide receiver, a tight end and at least some depth at offensive tackle given their brinksmanship with both Ickey Ekwonu and Taylor Moton.

The Carolina Panthers might make a bold move in the draft to add an elite talent that could change the face of the team.
