Days before commissioner Roger Goodell takes the stage in Kansas City and announces the start of the 2023 NFL Draft, there is still great uncertainty as to how this will unfold. The Panthers, who traded up with the Bears to claim the No. 1 overall pick, have yet to publicly affirm their selection to open this draft. The Texans, who lost out on the top selection, are now a great mystery with the second overall pick – and will set off a domino effect at the top of the first round. The Cardinals, owners of the third pick, could still seek a trade down with a team seeking a quarterback – or Arizona may just stand pat and select the best defensive player available. The Colts are looking to secure their future at quarterback with the fourth pick. The Raiders, Titans, Buccaneers and more could make a move for a quarterback as well.
