CHARLOTTE, N.C. – The Carolina Panthers have drafted only two players evaluated at the Senior Bowl during Dave Gettleman’s first two seasons as general manager.

They didn’t draft a player in 2014 who participated in the annual all-star game in Mobile, Alabama, where Gettleman and members of the college scouting department are this week looking at some of the nation's top college seniors entering the draft.

They selected two – defensive tackle Kawann Short (second round) and running back Kenjon Barner (sixth round) – in 2013.

Short has figured heavily into Carolina’s four-man rotation at tackle the past two seasons. He has five sacks, 3.5 in 2014.

Barner was traded to the Philadelphia Eagles this past summer. He was cut and eventually re-signed to the Eagles’ practice squad.

Among the positions Gettleman and company are evaluating this week are wide receiver, offensive tackle and cornerback.

“It’s going to be strong at wide receiver again,’’ Gettleman recently said of the 2015 draft class “It looks like it’s going to be strong at offensive tackle again. It looks there's going to be some depth at defensive end, pass rushers.

“You know how I feel about pass rushers. But really, the first process is free agency. We’ve got to see what’s there. That’s the first place you look.’’
