If Shaor Sanders is gonna make the team, which I do think is an if, like, he was a 5th round pick, you're not guaranteed anything if you're a 5th round pick, but if he's gonna make the team, then I feel like only one of Flacco or Pickett is gonna make the team, and then it because it just doesn't make any sense to carry, like you're gonna carry all 4 of these guys again, like one of these rookies is and it would be Sanders is just never gonna get any reps, so I feel like then they just probably burned that 5th rounder in DTR but whatever, uh, on trading for Kenny Pickett.

Um, cause I would, if, if it's Flacco Pickett, even as bad as Flacco looked last year with the Colts, I think he, I'd probably give him the edge over Kenny Pick.
Also, I can't believe Flacco is still doing this, man.
I'm gonna put Joe Flacco first because you just have to give Browns fans something that reminds them of football and not feeling like crap.
Second, I'm going to go Dillon Gabriel I think just based on draft investment.
I mean, that's a top 100 pick.
I know he hasn't played.
I personally think he's the worst of the four, but it's just hard for me to see a world where they give up on a top 100 pick year one.

Year two, that'd be possible.
I mean they they just cut Siakika and those attack from Baylor, who's a 2nd round pick after one season, so.
I, I, I don't, I don't know if, if Gabrieltas the 3rd round of cements anything, but for the purpose of like ranking, ranking this for making the team, I think I'm going to put them 2 just because they just trapped in the top 100.
Um, then you get to Shadoor and Kenny Pickett.
I guess these are your 2 5th rounders, right?
Uh, I'll, I'll, I'll go.
I think, I think Shaddoor is a better quarterback than Kenny Pickett, but I don't know if they cut Kenny after they just tried to acquire him and they gave up another player that they valued clearly in DTR because he got to play some money snaps, uh, that I don't think most teams would have given him over the past few years.

Uh, so I, I, I think I'll pick it 3A, Sanders 3B, but maybe those are the guys who are fighting for their chances to make the roster.
I think Flacco ends up winning it all, winning it all because I just think he even at 40 years old, is the best quarterback in this group, um, then maybe we just go on from there.
But yeah, I just think there's gonna be potentially two odd men out, not just one, because it just roster stuff, but I'll just see how the, this is Cleveland's problem, and I'm just gonna be curious how they figured it out.

NFL analyst says former Steelers QB Kenny Pickett deserves the benefit of the doubt with Browns
The selection of quarterback Kenny Pickett in the first round of the 2022 NFL draft might go down as one of the worst picks of former Pittsburgh Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert. Sort of a going-away present for the Steelers in Colbert's final draft. Now, in 2025, Pickett is now on his third team in four seasons and is hoping he can get a fresh start with the Cleveland Browns and try to win the starting quarterback job. Meanwhile, most members of the Cleveland media have already requisitioned the Hall of Fame bust for rookie Shedeur Sanders and have no interest in hearing about Pickett. But NFL Network reporter Aditi Kinkhabwala says people are being too tough on Pickett. She joined the Ken Carman Show and talked up Pickett and his journey that landed him with the Browns. The Browns currently have longtime veteran Joe Flacco as the starter with Pickett as the No. 2. Then there is a battle between rookies Dillon Gabriel and the aforementioned Sanders. Since most teams only keep three quarterbacks, training camp will help the Browns decide who is the odd man out.
