5. Carolina Panthers

Kawann Short . 5. player. 87. They weren’t willing to spend the money on Josh Norman because the Panthers believe in building a defense from front to back. That means Kawann Short is almost certain to get a hefty raise since he is now unquestionably their best defensive lineman. Losing him would make a difficult situation much, much worse for this team that people thought could get back to the Super Bowl. No expense should be spared to make this happen.. DT. Carolina

6. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Chicago. Alshon Jeffery . 6. player. 48. The Chicago Bears hoped to get a career year from Alshon Jeffery. Instead they got erratic play and a PED suspension. So his stock will be in flux. The Buccaneers decide to be aggressive, hoping to put their young offense over the top by adding Jeffery as a highly quality #2 target opposite Mike Evans. The idea of course being to give Jameis Winston a pair of twin towers to overrun defenses through the air. It would definitely make for a potent combination.. WR
