Carolina Panthers complete seven-round 2021 NFL mock draft
2021 NFL mock draft: Round 4, 109th overall
OT. 87. Scouting Report. Spencer Brown. 4. player. Pick Analysis. Northern Iowa
Spencer Brown is a big, strong and athletic offensive tackle prospect who undoubtedly has exciting upside at the next level. He moves extremely well in space for an offensive lineman which leads to impressive ability as both a pass protector and run blocker. The Carolina Panthers continue to add quality offensive line depth with the selection of Brown in the fourth round of this 2021 NFL mock draft.
2021 NFL mock draft: Round 5, 148th overall
Pick Analysis. TE. Ole Miss. Kenny Yeboah. 5. Scouting Report. player. 841
With D.J. Moore, Robby Anderson and Curtis Samuel leading the way, the Carolina Panthers undoubtedly have an exciting group of pass-catchers in their offensive attack. That being said, they lack impact players at the tight end position and can potentially solve that with the selection of Kenny Yeboah late in this 2021 NFL mock draft.
Yeboah is a quick and explosive tight end prospect who shows plenty of upside as a playmaker in the passing game. He shows the ability to stretch the defense in the middle of the field with his deep speed and also shows impressive run-after-catch ability. Yeboah does not offer much as a blocker but he could quickly grow into an impact player at the tight end position for the Carolina Panthers.
2021 NFL mock draft: Round 6, 186th overall
Florida. Ventrell Miller. 6. 840. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. LB. player
Ventrell Miller is a bit on the small side at the linebacker position but he makes up for it with impressive sideline-to-sideline speed and toughness in the middle of the field. He is a slippery defender who sheds blocks well and tackles at a high level in space. Miller is a bit raw in coverage but has the physical skill-set needed to shine in that area. The Panthers find themselves a good player at an important position of need late in this mock draft.

Texas A&M. Anthony Hines III. player. 873. LB. 6. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis
Linebacker stands out as a major need for the Carolina Panthers but the opportunity to address the position earlier in this 2021 NFL mock draft never presented itself. Instead of reaching for a linebacker early, the Panthers double-dip at the position late.
Anthony Hines III is another smooth and athletic linebacker prospect who fits well in the modern NFL. He plays extremely well in space and displays impressive natural instincts in zone coverage. Hines is not great at playing through contact but his range at the second level is impressive and makes him a potential impact player at the next level.
2021 NFL mock draft: Round 7, 229th overall
Dicaprio Bootle. 7. player. 810. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. CB. Nebraska
With their final pick of this mock draft, the Panthers find some more upside at another position of need. Dicaprio Bootle is a quick and smooth cornerback prospect who shows impressive ball skills. Bootle lacks ideal size but he is a tough and feisty competitor who can hold his own against bigger receivers.

Bootle certainly has some upside on the defensive side of the ball but his athleticism and toughness would also make him a strong fit to contribute on special teams right away.
