5. (155) Dante Rosario, TE
The Panthers haven’t used their TE in the passing game in a long, long time but that could be changing with the selection of Rosario. Rosario has nice size at 6’2″, 242 and he’s just fast enough to be a threat (4.7 40) over the middle. He has nice hands and is a good receiver. But, he’s not much help in the running game as he’s not a good blocker. In 49 games (26 starts) at Oregon, Rosario caught 94 passes for 1,003 yards (10.7 avg) with 11 TD grabs. Rosario is also a really good special teams player who could wind up playing a big role on those units for the Panthers.
