- Panthers fans react to Thursday night's selection of WR Tetairoa McMillan
The Carolina Panthers threw the NFL a bit of a curveball on Thursday night, as they selected University of Arizona wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan with the eighth overall pick of the 2025 NFL draft. Heck, they even caught many of their fans off guard.
Many believed, after allowing the most points ever in a single season, that general manager Dan Morgan and the front office would focus in on grabbing a defensive player in this year's first round. A few of their perceived favorites, in fact, were still on the board—including University of Georgia pass rushers Jalon Walker and Mykel Williams.

But instead, they opted for offense in McMillan—the talented 6-foot-4 consensus All-American. The ultra-productive and uber-athletic pass catcher is now the second wide receiver taken by the Panthers in the first round in as many years, and should give quarterback Bryce Young another potent set of hands.
So, what do Panthers fans think about the choice?
Here are some of the best reactions to Carolina's selection of McMillan . . .
