The 2022 NFL Draft has been nothing short of entertaining so far and even though the three-day event isn't over yet, that hasn't stopped people from looking ahead to next year's crop of talent.

The 2023 NFL Draft class is stacked with talented prospects, especially when it comes to the quarterback position. Although we have a year to find out who's going to be drafted first overall, FanDuel Sportsbook's early 2023 draft odds help paint a picture of who it could be.

FanDuel Sportsbook is currently favoring a pair of quarterbacks at +200 odds to be the No. 1 pick in 2023. The duo in question is none other than Ohio State's C.J. Stroud and Alabama's Bryce Young.

After spending the 2020 campaign as Justin Fields' backup, Stroud was named the Buckeyes' starter last fall. His patience certainly paid off as he ended the season by completing 317 passes for 4,435 passing yards and a whopping 44 touchdowns to just six interceptions.

Similarly, Young also shined in his first year as Alabama's starting QB. He completed 366 of his own passes for 4,872 passing yards and 47 TDs to seven INTs before being named the 2021 Heisman Trophy winner.

Young's teammate and linebacker Will Anderson Jr. isn't too far behind the duo when it comes to 2023 NFL Draft odds, sitting at +300 to go first overall after racking up 101 tackles (31.0 for a loss), 17.5 sacks and three broken-up passes last year.

Here's a look how the rest of the 2023 NFL Draft odds are shaping up.
