Panthers' Big Offseason Moves: Lloyd, Oweh, Walker, Linderbaum

0:00From the Daily News Now Network, this is NFL News Today, subscribe to keep up with every headline, every game. The Carolina Panthers face a tight salary cap this offseason, but they could create room to chase top free agents. Analysts say the team should get aggressive at key spots, like linebacker, edge rusher, and offensive line to build around quarterback Bryce Young, right away and long-term. Here this week, discussions pointed to Jacksonville linebacker Devon Lloyd as a prime target. He's seen as a big upgrade for the defense, even if his price tags high in a week class at his position. Adding him will let the Panthers draft elsewhere early. Meanwhile, edge rusher, Odafe, OA from Philadelphia stands out too. At just 25 years old, he brings strong pressure numbers and fills a glaring need better than relying solely on the draft. A corner, like Nishan Wright, could round out a top trio with JC Horn. On offense, Green Bay tackle Rashid Walker looks like the top left tackle available.

1:02The 26-year-old Premier Blocker offers a smooth shift from current options without huge risk. Center Tyler Linderbaum might be the NFL's best, worth the splurge to anchor Young's line. These moves could transform the roster fast, freeing draft picks for other holes and setting up contention soon. Those hint the Panthers are thinking big, despite the cap crunch.
