Passing on Daxon Rudolph Could Haunt Florida at No. 9

The Panthers are sitting in one of those draft spots that can look harmless now and brutal five years from now. Daxon Rudolph is being framed as the kind of player who can make a front office look either brilliant or blind, depending on what Florida does at No. 9. Draft night always rewards patience in the moment and punishes regret forever, which is why this pick carries a little more heat than usual.
