CHARLOTTE, N.C. — With the first pick in the 2023 NFL draft, the Carolina Panthers will likely select one of four quarterbacks. Bryce Young (Alabama), C.J. Stroud (Ohio State) Anthony Richardson (Florida) and Will Levis (Kentucky) all have a case to be the top pick.
Over four weeks, The Charlotte Observer has broken down the top four quarterback prospects, analyzing which of the four might be the best fit for the Panthers and new coach Frank Reich. We’ve unpacked what each prospect does best, identified their ideal NFL scheme fits, and projected who they’ll become as professionals based on the shades of NFL quarterback play they already possess.
This process was based on film evaluations and conversations with scouts and evaluators around the league.
