Carolina Panthers quarterback and 2023 first-overall pick Bryce Young is one of the top names to follow on the trade market leading up to the Nov. 5 deadline.
After losing his first two starts in 2024, Bryce Young was benched in favor of veteran Andy Dalton by first-year head coach Dave Canales. The Panthers (1-4) will likely finish with a top-five draft pick, which would put them in a position to take an elite QB prospect in the 2025 NFL Draft like Texas’ Quinn Ewers, Georgia’s Carson Beck, Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders or Miami’s Cam Ward.
The 23-year-old Young has lost 16 of his 18 NFL starts, completing only 59.3 percent of pass attempts for 3,180 yards, 11 touchdowns and 13 interceptions for a quarterback rating of 71.0.
Carolina’s best bet is to ride out the final 12 games of 2024 with Dalton and give Bryce Young a fresh start. There are several QB-needy teams who should have interest in the Alabama product, but the Las Vegas Raiders especially make sense as a landing spot.
