The Carolina Panthers have done a tremendous job of setting things up perfectly for their new franchise quarterback in 2023. And thanks to their eye-popping trade up to No. 1 overall, those in power have their pick of any prospect emerging from the college ranks this year. Everybody has their favorite. One could make a strong case for any of the top-three prospects, which is probably what it'll come down to with hype diminishing where Will Levis is concerned. Considering the current state of Carolina's roster and general manager Scott Fitterer's usual approach, they could be in a position to select the best player available throughout the draft. It's also worth remembering that the Panthers have around $27.48 million in available salary-cap space to further bolster their ranks in free agency should they wish.
