The Panthers did not commerce as much as No. 1 hoping to determine which quarterback they needed. Maaaaaybe they had been hoping to actually fall in love with a Will Levis kind (do not suppose it is out of the query), however David Tepper lacks persistence and Bryce Young has the best flooring of this group, so regardless of C.J. Stroud’s betting market, I’ll pencil him in right here as the primary general choose.

I freaking love the thought of Lamar Jackson going to the Colts and a Shane Steichen offense reducing him unfastened behind a rejuvenated offensive line with Jonathan Taylor behind him and a few first rate weapons at receiver. The Ravens and Lamar simply really feel too far aside at this juncture, and the power to safe a possible franchise quarterback close to the highest of the draft to interchange Lamar makes a ton of sense.
