On Monday the NFL announced that the Carolina Panthers will be awarded two compensatory picks in the fifth and sixth rounds of the 2015 NFL Draft. However, due to miscalculations, today the NFL announced that they have upgraded one of the Panthers compensatory picks from the sixth round to the fifth round.
The NFL has announced that the #Panthers sixth-round compensatory pick has been changed to a fifth-round pick.

This Panthers now have at least one pick in each round of the Draft, and have three fifth round picks. Their three picks in the 5th round are:
5 - 161 (their non-comp pick)
5 - 169
5 - 174
What should Dave Gettleman do now that he has these extra two picks? Should he select more late round players, or use his non-compensatory picks to trade up in the Draft? On Monday we asked CSR, and the results are now in -- 70% of fans want Dave Gettleman to trade at some point in the Draft.
