I'd like to have a list of people shown but not assigned

New user, so excuse me if things are obvious.
I am working on a drawing checking tracking system using Monday.com.
Drawings are placed in a certain directory and then I get assigned the drawing to be checked. I will then change the relevant person to the correct checker.
I’d like the drawing originator to give me a list of people that are qualified to do the check, if I add an additional column to the task and put potential checkers in there, they get “assigned” to the task.
I could make a generic text column but it would be nice for the originator to pull from our list of people.
I’m thinking a people column that allows people to be picked but it doesn’t “assign” them.
