Stroud, at least until the start of this week, had been considered the favorite to be selected atop the 2023 NFL draft by the Panthers since they acquired the first overall pick back on March 10. Carolina’s 14-person contingent (and coziness) at the Ohio State University Pro Day didn’t go unnoticed by the rest of the football world nor the 2022 Heisman Trophy finalist.

“Yeah, it means a lot,” Stroud said about owners David and Nicole Tepper making the trip to Columbus. “I think that shows how much—not only that they’re interested in me—but I’m interested in them. Just to meet ’em, know ’em as people and get to know them better and better as a person. So I think that’s really big.”

This’ll wrap up Carolina’s top-30 visits for the class’ top four passing prospects, as Florida’s Anthony Richardson and Alabama’s Bryce Young have already been brought in this week.
