Prospect No. 15: LB Devin Lloyd

College: Utah

Height: 6'3"

Weight: 232

Draft range: Top 15

Analysis: Lloyd is a long, athletic linebacker that could be a perfect fit for this Panthers defense. Jermaine Carter is an unrestricted free agent, so the Panthers will need a new Mike linebacker should the Panthers decide to let Carter walk. Lloyd would be a tremendous upgrade and would help bolster the second level of the defense alongside Shaq Thompson at the Will. I usually don't hand out major praise toward a player but Lloyd will be an All-Pro in this league. Very good instincts, sure tackler, and tremendous knowledge of the game.

Analysis from NFL Draft Bible on Sports Illustrated:

Devin Lloyd is an impressive linebacker who can play and start at the next level. He fits the part of a blitzing Mike linebacker who gives you enough length as a zone defender. Lloyd uses his length and size well and can play alleys and angles effectively. Lloyd needs to improve in man coverage as he has the movement skills but his eyes are a bit slow. He also needs to improve his balance as he can get thrown around a bit.
