CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The Carolina Panthers emerged as one of the NFL's free-agent winners.
On the first day of the legal tampering period, May 9, Panthers general manager Dan Morgan finalized deals with two of their top targets, top pass rusher Jaelan Phillips and Pro Bowl inside linebacker Devin Lloyd. The Panthers later added two potential starters along the offensive line, left tackle Rasheed Walker and center Luke Fortner.
Along with the signings of several depth players, Morgan's attention has turned completely to the 2026 NFL Draft.
"We're nine days away," Morgan said during Tuesday's pre-draft press conference at Bank of America Stadium.
Beginning the process several weeks ago with nearly 600 names on a chart of potential prospects, Morgan didn't want to reveal how many players remained on the list, adding, "we're in a good spot."
By filling in so many roster holes during free agency, Morgan said his draft team is "ready for all scenarios."
The Panthers are scheduled to pick No. 19 when the three-day showcase event opens April 2325 in Pittsburgh. Don't be surprised if Morgan moves out of the position, likely moving down to add more draft capital.
When asked if the free-agent moves helped narrow his pre-draft focus, Morgan pivoted and said they created additional avenues to explore.
"If anything, I think it opens up a lot of possibilities," Morgan said. "I think all positions are on the table. And like I said before, you never know who's gonna fall down to us."
Among the Panthers' potential first-round picks, Morgan said he will target a pass-rush specialist, a playmaking target for quarterback Bryce Young or possibly a top offensive tackle prospect.
"So I think we're definitely in the best-player available mindset," Morgan said. "So, yeah, I think what we did in free agency set us up to do that."
The Panthers are exploring various possibilities for their 19th pick, aiming to maximize their options after recent free-agent signings.
The Panthers signed top pass rusher Jaelan Phillips and Pro Bowl inside linebacker Devin Lloyd, along with offensive linemen Rasheed Walker and Luke Fortner.
The 2026 NFL Draft is scheduled to occur nine days after Dan Morgan's recent comments, placing it in mid-May 2026.
