Ole Miss receiver Jonathan Mingo was one of, if not the most mentioned players in the 2023 NFL Draft given the underrated label. However, the Panthers recognized his talent by drafting him 39th overall.
Mingo recorded 51 receptions for 861 yards (16.9 yards per carry!) and five touchdowns in his final season as a Rebel. He is a big 6-foot-2 receiver who's fast (4.46-second 40-yard dash) and gets open at all three levels. Mingo is an excellent deep threat as well, who's capable of "mossing" defenders as you can see in this viral clip of a one-handed snag.
However, even though the Panthers' receiving corps is subpar, Mingo is unlikely to be a member of the starting trio in Week 1 leaving him to waiver wire status at the beginning of the season. But if he ever enters the starting lineup, he has the talent to thrive and be a priority pickup.

 D.J. Chark Out for Week 1, Adam Thielen Questionable
Carolina thin at receiver
By: Mike Krueger | Fri Sep 8, 12:32 pm
|  | D.J. Chark returned to practice as a limited participant Friday in his first day back since sustaining a hamstring injury, but he was ruled out for the season opener. Adam Thielen also returned to practice as a limited participant Friday after missing Thursday with an ankle injury. He's listed as questionable for Carolina's season opener, leaving the door open for him to play. (Panthers.com)
FFToday's Take: With Chark out and Thielen Questionable, the Panthers are a bit thin at receiver to start the season. We should see a lot of rookie Jonathan Mingo and Terrace Marshall Jr. (back) against the Falcons. Mingo is on the Flex radar for Week 1.
