Although there has been plenty of controversy and upheaval around who will go first in this year's draft, most experts seem to agree that Bryce is the likeliest No. 1 pick.

Carolina traded up for this pick in the draft, taking it from the Chicago Bears, who had the worst record in the league last year. Carolina went through three starting quarterbacks last season, which may explain why they're interested in trying their hand in the draft.

Bryce is seen is as a natural leader, and won the Heisman Trophy in 2021 for being the best player in college football. There are some concerns with Bryce as a player, chiefly his size. At just 5'10", Bryce would be one of the smallest quarterbacks in the league.

"I've been this size, respectfully, my whole life. I know who I am. I know what I can do," Bryce said in response to those concerns.

Clearly, both Carolina and Bryce feel confident that he can have a major impact in the NFL. Only time will tell whether Bryce is the player who can ultimately turn the team's fortunes around.
