Welcome to Mock Draft Monday! With less than three weeks until the Carolina Panthers are officially on the clock, it is time to drill deeper into the upcoming 2023 NFL Draft.

In addition, we have added some picks for teams that currently are not expected to make a selection in the first round. We’ll have some more mock drafts for you until things get cooking for real, but for now, here is a look at how we think things will unfold.
