C.J. Stroud is one of the top quarterback prospects in the 2023 NFL Draft. Stroud is projected to be selected within the Top 5 picks in the upcoming draft and it won’t be surprising if he’s picked 1st overall. His prototypical build combined with his accuracy and pocket presence makes him one of the best QB prospects to come out of college in recent years.

The Carolina Panthers, who are currently holding the first overall pick are reportedly very interested in the talented quarterback. Some recent reports suggested Stroud ghosted the Manning family after making a commitment to appear at their camp but that will probably not affect his draft stock this late.
