Players Panthers met with at the Combine

The Panthers met with several prospects during the 2024 NFL Combine, here’s a list of the meetings we could find. (I also used NFLDraftBuzz.com’s positional rankings for each player position to give a little bit more context as to where they could be drafted.)

Wide Receivers
Keon Coleman (FSU) - 8th
Xavier Legette (South Carolina) - 16th
Ainias Smith (Texas A&M) - 24th
Brian Thomas Jr (LSU) - 4th
Malik Washington (Virginia) - 19th
Xavier Worthy (Texas) - 12th
The Panthers are almost certainly going to draft a wide receiver, the only question is where. Based on the reported meetings so far, they are looking far and wide across the board. I don’t think Brian Thomas will be available for them at the 33rd pick if he is in fact the 4th best prospect at WR in the draft, however you never know come draft night. This is supposed to be one of the best classes in quite a while, so the Panthers should have plenty of options wherever they look. I expect this list to grow considerably as they do their private meetings and workouts as well. Larson is an unranked prospect though he is coming from a smaller school.

Offensive Line
OT Delmar Glaze (Maryland) - 36th
OT Blake Larson (Augustana) - unranked
OT Patrick Paul (Houston) - 15th

And also there is this:


We have our first name for a top-30 visit and it’s pretty familiar one.


According to Justin Melo of The Draft Network, the Carolina Panthers have set up an in-house meeting with University of Southern California wideout Brenden Rice. Rice—who is also set to see the Arizona Cardinals, per Melo— is the son of Pro Football Hall of Famer and three-time Super Bowl champion Jerry Rice.

I know 007 is high on Xavier Legetter WR , South Carolina.
I can't tell if this is good or bad,, but when 007 was touting him he was a 2 rd pick,, But lately his stock has risen and he might be a solid first rounder . When I can "good or bad" I mean, how many times have we seen a players stock rise because of the Senior Bowl or how fast they can run the 40 in shorts at the combine, that dont pan out.. Some do.. Some don't .
