No. 14: Carolina Panthers
The pick: Sheldon Richardson, DT, Missouri One of the biggest needs the Panthers have is at defensive tackle. They filled one need at linebacker when they signed Chase Blackburn from the New York Giants and another at wide receiver with Domenik Hixon, also from the Giants. So look for Ron Rivera and his bunch to look for the best available tackle when it comes to their turn, which is why Richardson fits. He's a great athlete for someone at 300-plus pounds who moves like a linebacker instead of a defensive tackle and gave offensive lineman fits when they played against Missouri. Putting Richardson in the middle of the Panthers defense will certainly help Blackburn, Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy and Thomas Davis out.
