From the article, “According to Panthers owner David Tepper, however, that wasn’t how the trade was originally drawn up.

“We had a trade to go up to No. 2,” Tepper said. "It was a three-way trade with Chicago. And we were gonna go up to No. 2. And the Texans were gonna trade up to No. 1, Chicago was gonna go to No. 2, and we were gonna trade with Chicago (for No. 9 pick).

And we’re waiting. I think we had that trade kinda arranged on Wednesday. I come from a world where you do trades, and I don’t love when trades don’t happen right away. So I’m driving Scott [Fitterer] crazy. I have to apologize to Scott for this, by the way.”

It sounds like Houston backed out and figured that the Panthers were going to take Young with the first pick. They were perfectly content drafting Stroud with the second pick. Tepper got frustrated when they backed out and basically demanded a trade that would net the Panthers the first pick. This is why you don’t let the owner function as a GM.
