At the time of this writing, there is one week left before the 1st round of the draft. Houston, holding the #2 pick in the draft, and with glaring deficiencies in its current QB room (Case Keenum, Davis Mills and something called an E.J. Perry), seemingly will open its draft with a QB. With Carolina’s move to claim the #1 pick from Chicago, and given their recent QB quandaries, they likely go QB. Sorting the internet churn, Bryce Young of Alabama might want to start looking for property in North Carolina.
Following Carolina, Houston appears set to draft the runner-up in the 2023 NFL Draft QB beauty pageant: CJ Stroud.
