The NFL Draft is right around the corner and rumors are starting to swirl about who might end up where.
One player that many believe is locked into the first overall pick is quarterback Bryce Young.
The Carolina Panthers traded up to the top spot because they wanted a franchise quarterback.
It appears to many that Young will be their guy.
Young was an elite college quarterback and even walked away with one Heisman Trophy.
Also, one of his teammates at Alabama has strong praise for him.
Will Anderson is a top prospect in his own right, and he is expected to be a top-five pick.
He went on ESPN’s First Take to discuss a few different topics with Stephen A. Smith.
One was choosing between Young or NFL legend Tom Brady.
As you can see in this video, Anderson went with his college teammate.

Anderson is simply being a good teammate with this answer.
He is trying to hype up Young, by giving him the nod over Brady.
There’s nothing to see here. He is just trying to help his collegemate in the draft.

While many people sit around and question Young’s size, Anderson is giving him a huge vote of confidence.
Bama strong big Will!!! 😆🦾

It was a weird question to ask in the first place, but Anderson handled it well.
Maybe Anderson thought they were comparing 46-year-old Brady to Young.
Then it would make sense to take his college teammate.
well yeah brady’s 46

It will be interesting to see where both Young and Anderson end up on draft day.
Both should not have to wait long to hear their names called.
