Episode Details

The legal negotiating period for contracts in the NFL begins on Monday, and the Carolina Panthers are expected to be active in free agency as they aim to rebuild their league-worst defense while also adding talent to the offense. According to Over The Cap, the Panthers are projected to have just under $29 million in cap space. Given this, how aggressive can the Panthers be during the free agency period?

Cincinnati Bengals edge rusher Trey Hendrickson was informed on Thursday that the team will allow him to seek a trade, as contract negotiations have stalled. Could the Panthers be interested in trading for Hendrickson, despite the likelihood that he will seek a top-of-the-market contract extension this offseason?

With the 8th overall pick, the Panthers will likely have several options. One possibility is selecting a tight end, a position that General Manager Dan Morgan has described as "a little thin" heading into free agency. Could Penn State's Tyler Warren be the solution to the Panthers tight end talent and depth issues?

Julian Council addresses these questions and others from listeners in this week's edition of the Weekly Friday Mailbag on Locked On Panthers.
