The Carolina Panthers believe they've finally found their franchise quarterback. The Panthers selected Alabama's Bryce Young with the No. 1 overall pick in the NFL draft on Thursday night, the first time the team has selected a QB with the top overall pick since Cam Newton in 2011.
The Panthers selected Alabama's Bryce Young with the No. 1 overall pick in the NFL draft on Thursday night, the first time the team has selected a QB with the top overall pick since Cam Newton in 2011.Young was 30-4 as a starter during three seasons with the Crimson Tide, throwing for 8,356 yards with 80 touchdowns and only 12 interceptions.
"I'm myself, I know who I am, I'm confident in my abilities," Young told a group of reporters at an NFL Play 60 function Wednesday."For me, I don't know how to play the game another way. I've been this size relative to the people around me for my entire life. ... I can't grow. I can't get any taller."
The Panthers hope Young brings stability to a position that has been in flux since 2017, the previous time the franchise reached the postseason. Young has shown he can win games and comes to Carolina with a reputation for being a high-IQ quarterback who excels at making fast decisions. Young has mostly succeeded as a pocket passer, but can also make plays on the run.
