Carolina: What rookie will have the biggest impact?
The Carolina Panthers have a bunch of rookies that could make the team, and even more that could become impact players. Right now, in my head I can see a few that come to mind right off the bat. These players have a chance right off the bat.
Fifth round draft pick Zack Sanchez is one of those players that could have instant impact on a situation either on defense or as a special teams player. He is just that talented. He is one of those players who has a lot of intangibles and he just needs a chance to show them off.

During his time at Oklahoma Sanchez in 2013 started as a red shirt freshman and had 2 interceptions and defensed 13 passes. In 2014 he had 6 interceptions. He had 7 interceptions during the 2015 season and had 130 tackles over his time at Oklahoma. He started 37 games over his college career.
He does all of the good things that a great defender does, he studies film all the time. He puts what he learns on film into practice when he steps onto the field. He is fearless and will not back down from a bigger receiver. Zack is a good tackler and he has great ball skills when he is fighting for a pass.
He is not a big guy, but what he lacks in size he makes up in heart and ability to make plays. He is somewhat of a gambler, but he seems to be right more than he is wrong.
This guy is going to be a great Panther and a great asset to the NFL.
