The Rock Hill Herald is reporting the Panthers have signed fifth-round pick TE Gary Barnidge.  He’s the second draft pick to be signed with the Panthers, as the team also has DT Nick Hayden, their sixth-round pick, in the fold.  Barnidge is 6-foot-6, 243 pounds, and last season was All-Big East Conference first-team selection.  Scouts say that he needs to get bigger in order to make any sort of impact in the league.  Last season in 12 games at Louisville he caught 53 passes for 655 yards and seven TD’s.
