NFL Exec on Bryce Young vs. C.J. Stroud: 'Bryce Is a Better Player Despite His Size'
At 5-foot-10 and 204 pounds, one of the biggest concerns about Bryce Young entering the 2023 NFL draft is his size, but one NFL executive still believes the former Alabama signal-caller is better than C.J. Stroud despite his small stature.
"Bryce is a better player despite his size,'' said one NFL executive, according to ESPN's David Newton.
The Carolina Panthers hold the No. 1 overall pick in this year's draft after acquiring it in a trade with the Chicago Bears, and the franchise is widely expected to draft either Young or Stroud, the former Ohio State quarterback, provided they don't fall in love with Kentucky's Will Levis or Florida's Anthony Richardson.
