The Browns QB competition seems to have good options
“If you have two quarterbacks, you don’t have one” has become an adage that everyone seems to believe in. With the Cleveland Browns having four quarterbacks, could that mean they actually have at least two? Maybe more?
Kenny Pickett was acquired first, in a trade, then Joe Flacco was brought back in free agency, before Dillon Gabriel and then Shedeur Sanders were selected in the NFL draft. Flacco and Sanders are the big names, but Gabriel and Pickett cost the Browns the most to acquire.
Cleveland brought in differing playstyles in their four quarterbacks in what was described as “Everyone but Deshaun Watson” kind of offseason.

It is early in the process, but Martin’s sourced reporting, as well as Peter Schrager adding what he’s seeing and hearing from those in Berea, points to a real competition with both rookies having a real shot at the job.
While a report said the Browns could narrow in on their top two options by the end of mandatory minicamp, if all four quarterbacks are playing well, things could get really interesting.
