The Panthers were awarded the No. 100 overall pick as compensation for losing offensive lineman Andrew Norwell in free agency."The Panthers now have a second pick in the third round Graham Gano Jersey , No. 100 overall, to go with the No. 78 selection they already had. If you are wondering why there are only 31 picks in the third round it is because the Giants used a pick in the supplemental draft. Here are the Panthers draft picks as of this change:The award restores the Panthers’ full compliment of seven picks. The Panthers do not have a seventh round pick this year after including it in the package that sent wide receiver Kaelin Clay to the Buffalo Bills in exchange for cornerback Kevon Seymour.It will be important for the Panthers to use this pick wisely. Might they package it with No. 78 or No. 116 to move up into the top of the third round or even late second round? Crazier things have happened. The Carolina Panthers have signed former Tampa Bay Buccanneers kicker Chandler Catanzaro. He was part of a group of kickers they worked out last week after Graham Gano struggled in Detroit. This signing Julius Peppers Jersey , however, is not due to a crisis in the team’s confidence of Gano.Instead DJ Moore Color Rush Jersey , this follows Gano appearing on the injury report this week with a knee injury. Catanzaro, who was released from the Bucs this year following his accuracy struggles James Color Rush Bradberry Jersey , is being described as “an insurance policy” while the Panthers evaluate Gano’s health. Catanzaro is a career 83% field goal kicker but has missed four extra points this season. He is not a guaranteed upgrade over Gano.To make room on their roster, the Panthers have sent 2012 second round pick Amini Silatolu to injured reserve. Silatolu was unable to make an impact this year in spite of the miles of significant injuries and struggles along the Panthers offensive line. His Panthers career is likely over at this point.
