NFL Teams Lock in Stars with Fifth-Year Options

NFL teams make crucial decisions on fifth-year options for their 2023 first-round draft picks, with most teams opting to keep their stars on track for extensions. Notable moves include the Panthers and Texans exercising options for Bryce Young, C.J. Stroud, and Will Anderson, respectively, while the Seahawks did the same for Jaxon Smith-Njigba. However, some surprising decisions were made, such as the Colts passing on Anthony Richardsons option and the Lions declining Jack Campbells. Several players futures remain uncertain, with decisions still pending. These moves set the stage for players careers, with options bought leading to extension talks and declines opening trade doors or signaling rebuilds.
