Kevin Greene was only a Carolina Panther for three seasons, but one could argue it was the accomplishments that he accumulated there that would put him over the tipping point to enter the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2016.

Sam Mills signed with the expansion Carolina Panthers after spending his first nine seasons with the New Orleans Saints.  Mills was one of the best defensive players ever for the Saints, but his reputation has been appropriated by Carolina, where he was instantly their defensive leader.  He played for the Panthers for three seasons where he started all 48 of his games, making him the only Panther to start every game in the first three seasons of Carolina’s existence.  Mills would have a career renaissance in 1996 where he would go to his 5^th Pro Bowl and would be chosen for his first and only First Team All-Pro.  He would have seven Interceptions and 10 Quarterback Sacks as a Panther.

Trai Turner played the first six years of his career with the Carolina Panthers where his last five earned him a Pro Bowl selection.  The Right Guard was a star at LSU, and his overall protection of the right side has been vital to the success of the Panthers' success and protection of Cam Newton.  Turner was never an All-Pro with the Panthers, but anyone with five straight Pro Bowls is one hell of a player.

After four seasons with the Chicago Bears, Greg Olsen was traded to the Carolina Panthers where he had by far his greatest success.  The Tight End would go to three Pro Bowls, and in all of those years seeing him accrue over 1,000 Receiving Yards.  Olsen would be a Second Team All-Pro in two of those years (2015 & 2016) and he accumulated 6,463 Receiving Yards and 39 TDs.  The former 7^th Floor Crew member was a large part of the Panthers making it to Super Bowl 50.
