The 2023 NFL draft delivered plenty of memorable moments, with three quarterbacks taken within the first four picks and then two running backs drafted inside the top 12.
Of course, the MMQB crew had plenty to say about those notable draft picks, from quarterback Anthony Richardson landing in Indianapolis at No. 4 to Detroit possibly reaching for running back Jahmyr Gibbs at No. 12.
The running backs made a comeback, but the quarterbacks again dominated the draft, with 11 being taken through the first 150 picks, an NFL record. Quarterback Bryce Young went first to the Panthers, thanks to the trade they made with the Bears in March to move up from No. 9.
Panthers coach Frank Reich was still smiling about the Young pick during his interview Saturday afternoon with NFL Network after his team wrapped up the draft.
We graded every pick of the first round, and then every pick on Day 2, and now it’s time to analyze each team’s full class.
