Carolina Panthers

Draft day is officially here which means it's time to submit my final mock draft for 2023. I'm pretty certain about number one, but after that, it could go a million different ways. The draft starts at two and what Houston decides to do will dictate how antsy teams are to make a move up to No. 3.

Here's how I see things going down tonight in Kansas City.

1. Carolina Panthers: QB Bryce Young (Alabama)

2. Houston Texans: EDGE Will Anderson Jr. (Alabama)

3. Las Vegas Raiders (projected trade with ARI): QB C.J. Stroud (Ohio State)

4. Indianapolis Colts: QB Will Levis (Kentucky)

5. Seattle Seahawks: DL Jalen Carter (Georgia)

6. Detroit Lions: CB Christian Gonzalez (Oregon)

7. Arizona Cardinals (projected trade with LV): EDGE Tyree Wilson (Texas Tech)

8. Atlanta Falcons: RB Bijan Robinson (Texas)

9. Chicago Bears: OT Peter Skoronski (Northwestern)

10. Philadelphia Eagles: EDGE Nolan Smith (Georgia)

11. Tennessee Titans: QB Anthony Richardson (Titans)

12. Houston Texans: WR Quentin Johnston (TCU)

13. Green Bay Packers: WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba (Ohio State)

14. New England Patriots: CB Devon Witherspoon (Illinois)

15. New York Jets: OT Paris Johnson Jr. (Ohio State)

16. Washington Commanders: OT Broderick Jones (Georgia)

17. Pittsburgh Steelers: OT Darnell Wright (Tennessee)

18. Detroit Lions: DL Bryan Bresee (Clemson)

19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: EDGE Lukas Van Ness (Iowa)

20. Seattle Seahawks: QB Hendon Hooker (Tennessee)

21. Los Angeles Chargers: TE Michael Mayer (Notre Dame)

22. Baltimore Ravens: CB Emmanuel Forbes (Mississippi State)

23. Minnesota Vikings: DL Calijah Kancey (Pitt)

24. Jacksonville Jaguars: S Brian Branch (Alabama)

25. New York Giants: CB Joey Porter Jr. (Penn State)

26. Dallas Cowboys: TE Dalton Kincaid (Utah)

27. Buffalo Bills: CB Deonte Banks (Maryland)

28. Cincinnati Bengals: TE Darnell Washington (Georgia)
