traded up to the No. 1 spot
The Panthers aren’t quite sure yet who they’ll pick. The decision-makers within Carolina’s organization surely have their preferences, but a choice hasn't been decided.As for the Texans, Bryce Young seems to fit the type of player DeMeco Ryans and Nick Caserio’s often speak about. Caserio talks about players having great attitudes. Ryans said he wants to know about a player’s character and how that outweighs everything.
Young’s size is legitimate concern for some teams. At the NFL scouting combine, he measured at 5-foot-10 ⅛ and weighed 204 pounds. Some scouts question his durability and wonder if he can take the hits from NFL defenders. He played through a shoulder injury during the 2022 season. But there are some in the Carolina organization who like Young, and recognize that with his intangibles, he’s arguably the safest pick in this draft.Ohio State wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba missed most of the 2022 season with a hamstring injury but was in fine form at the NFL combine.If defensive linemen Will Anderson, Jalen Carter, Tyree Wilson or Myles Murphy were available at No.
The thing to remember about Smith-Njigba is what he did with Ohio State when he was healthy in 2021. He played with NFL offensive rookie of the year candidates Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson — the latter won the award — and Smith-Njigba was arguably the best receiver on that roster.
