Brandished as the NFL's answer to Steph Curry, former Alabama and now Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young has officially been selected with the first overall pick.
Six weeks ago, the Panthers took a huge swing when they decided to trade a huge haul to the Chicago Bears, acquiring the first pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. They sent the ninth overall pick, the 61st overall pick, a first-round selection in 2024, a second-round selection in 2025 and star receiver DJ Moore to the Bears to control the draft with the first overall pick.
For around a month, many had believed that the player that they would be selecting would be Ohio State's CJ Stroud. New Panthers quarterbacks coach Josh McCown had openly admitted that he thought Stroud was the best player in the draft after his sensational performance against George in the college playoff semi-finals.
