CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers coach Frank Reich hasn't ruled out any of the four quarterbacks targeted for the top pick of the draft, including Alabama's Bryce Young whose biggest drawback is that he is only 5-foot-10.
He reminded quickly on Monday, the first time he's spoken publicly since Carolina traded with Chicago for the top pick 10 days ago, that he had a "very high grade'' on Russell Wilson in 2012.
Wilson, who helped the Seattle Seahawks win one Super Bowl and reach another in addition to making the Pro Bowl nine times, is 5-foot-11 in a world where the average height of NFL quarterbacks is 6-foot-3.
