Storylines to know: Barring an injury, this unit is pretty settled. The starting talent with Horn and Jackson is arguably the best duo in the league, and the depth behind them has already proven capable of stepping in when called upon. As the corner unit becomes more comfortable with the defense, the biggest story to watch will be how coaches employ their guys. The offseason, thus far, has teased more exotic looks that mix coverage, thanks to the additional depth.
Players to watch: One of the reasons the Panthers can play around more with their cornerbacks is Will Lee III. The rookie has the potential to play outside, and the willingness to move into nickel. He's the wild card right now, and wherever coaches employ him means other guys, like Horn and Corey Thornton and Chau Smith-Wade, can be moved around to do even more.
