does not include any “chosen one” type of prospect. None of them have been placed on a pedestal like past first-overall selections in Andrew Luck, Cam Newton, and Trevor Lawrence were. Those three were all seen as the unquestionable top choice in their respective classes, to the point hardly anyone even discussed alternative scenarios in their pre-draft processes where they would not be the first selections.
With the 2023 class, teams have the incentive to keep swinging for franchise quarterbacks at the top because even if one gets picked, there’s a chance that they prefer the other three options anyway.

Speaking of Lance, that 2021 class is a good comparison to the current one in ‘23. Lawrence was just about everybody’s QB1, but behind him, there was little consensus on the ranking of Lance, Wilson, Justin Fields, and Mac Jones. Teams and insiders seemed to be pushing Wilson and Jones, while Fields and Lance were Draft Twitter darlings that fans were craving. The lack of established rankings behind Lawrence set a good groundwork for the 49ers to trade up to No. 3 and get their guy.
Want the physical outlier who beat the odds and became a college football legend? Draft Young! Want the prototypical pinpoint passer whose stature and stats make him an easy projection to the next level? Stroud would be perfect for you. Want the guy with such jaw-dropping physical traits that he might become a world-breaking, MVP-winning quarterback if you can develop him and fix his current flaws? Richardson, welcome aboard.
