Round 2, Pick 47: Chris Lindstrom, iOL, Boston College

The Panthers make it back-to-back picks along the offensive line and grab Boston College’s Chris Lindstrom to bolster the interior. This would be a home run draft class for Carolina; they’d essentially rebuild their offensive line in just two selections.

Lindstrom, who has 47 starts during his collegiate career, is a plus athlete who plays with the mentality of a dude twice as strong as he is. And as he continues to get stronger in the NFL, that mentality will serve him well.

Lindstrom is a plug-and-play starter who you can forget about for the next 10 years. Cam Newton will be the happiest man in Carolina after these first two picks.
