All draft picks sign standard four-year deals, but they’ll have an option for the fifth year on Freeling’s, which can be picked up after his third season. They’re also signing 10 undrafted rookies on Thursday.
To make room for the picks on the roster, the Panthers waived linebacker Jacoby Windmon, who has been here for parts of the last two seasons.
They get an international player roster exemption for linebacker Mapalo Mwansa, a native of England who was here on the practice squad last season. That allows them to carry 91 through the offseason.
