The 2023 NFL Draft featured some high-level prospects who are expected to play large roles with their new teams as soon as Week 1 officially kicks off in a few weeks.
The Carolina Panthers, Houston Texans, and Indianapolis Colts drafted what look to be their future starting quarterbacks in Bryce Young, C.J. Stroud, and Anthony Richardson, respectively.
Meanwhile, the Atlanta Falcons took Bijan Robinson who was the consensus best running back in his class.
All four young players are talented offensive weapons who will have ample opportunities to contribute right away and establish themselves as up-and-coming stars in the NFL.
In fact, the four are currently the favorites to win the 2023 Offensive Rookie of the Year award via Fox Sports NFL.

When it comes to such an award, it normally comes down to opportunities and all four players should have their fair share in 2023.
The quarterbacks will probably have a leg up in the competition over Bijan as they’re guaranteed to touch the football each snap.
Young, Stroud, and Richardson are going to start on Day 1 and each bring their own unique skillset to the quarterback position.
However, Robinson shouldn’t be completely discounted as he was the best dual-threat running back last season and is projected to play the same role for the Falcons’ offense this year.
Rookies, of course, will go through their ups and downs as they try to navigate their first year in the league though this group has enough talent and skill to really make an impact as soon as they officially make their regular season debuts.
