When the Derek Carr/shoulder injury news broke, it fueled speculation that any team interested in Shedeur Sanders or another quarterback could jump in front of the New Orleans Saints, who pick one spot behind the Panthers at No. 9. But the Saints don’t seem to be in on Sanders, who could be in a for a Thursday night fall.

To the surprise of quite a few folks, the Panthers selected University of Arizona wideout Tetairoa McMillan with the eighth overall pick of the first round. Rather than opting for a defender, general manager Dan Morgan and company went for a weapon on offense for third-year quarterback Bryce Young.
