The first round of the NFL Draft has come and gone, The Carolina Panthers with their first-round pick decided to select South Carolina quarterback Jaycee Horn when Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields was on the board. Did the Panthers make the right decision going "best player available"?

The decision to pass on a quarterback in the first round also ensures that Sam Darnold will be the starting quarterback for Carolina in 2021. How much pressure is on Darnold and the Panthers front office? Also, will Darnold now be linked to Justin Fields given the team putting its faith in him?

The Panthers still have plenty of needs throughout the rest of the draft. What position should be the top priority at 39th overall and what other players in the later rounds could be future impact players?
