The 20-year-old has made a significant impact on the college football world, leading the Crimson Tide to a national championship in 2021. Young has been praised for his mobility, arm strength, and accuracy, making him one of the top quarterback prospects in recent years. If he lives up to expectations, he could be the franchise savior that the Panthers desperately need. However, it's worth noting that rumors have been circulating that the Panthers may be open to trading the first overall pick. With numerous teams in the market for a quarterback, the Panthers could receive a significant haul of picks and players in exchange for their top pick. Only time will tell what decisions the teams in the NFL Draft make, but fans worldwide are eager to see the future stars of football take the stage.
