The Carolina Panthers selected receiver Terrace Marshall out of LSU in the second round of the 2021 NFL Draft, 59th overall.

Marshall will reunite with Panthers offensive coordinator Joe Brady, who was the Tigers' passing game coordinator and wide receivers coach during the 2019 season.

Carolina needed to bolster its wideout group with Curtis Samuel leaving in free agency and Robby Anderson entering the final year of his deal.

Key stats: 48 receptions, 731 yards, 10 TDs, 15.2 YPC

Teams searching for untapped potential should look no further than Marshall. The LSU product is dripping with upside due to his unique blend of size and speed that coaches can utilize out wide or in the slot. Marshall's excellent ball-tracking skills and massive catch radius also make him a weapon on deep routes and in the red zone. He's not the most physical receiver yet, and his route running requires a bit of work. But Marshall can develop into a dangerous playmaker. He's still only 20, and his physical gifts are too intriguing to overlook.
