All anyone wants to talk about right now is the Cleveland Browns quarterback room and for good reason.

With Deshaun Watson still recovering, the Browns loaded up on quarterback talent this offseason, signing Joe Flacco, trading for Kenny Pickett, and drafting Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders.

Its an intriguing mix of veterans and long-term projects but its also crowded.

Something will eventually have to give.

According to Cleveland.coms Mary Kay Cabot , the Browns currently have no plans to trade any of the four quarterbacks.

Instead, the team will let organized team activities determine how things shake out.

The Browns will conduct concurrent offensive drills in OTAs to maximize the reps for all four quarterbacks, and give them as level a playing field as possible, Cabot reported.

All four will have to have a chance to throw to Jerry Jeudy, David Njoku and Cedric Tillman to make the competition fair.

Bleacher Reports Brad Gagnon said he wouldnt be surprised if 2025 turns into another messy, chaotic season in Cleveland especially at quarterback.

Gagnon believes the Browns could be heading into desperation mode by midseason, especially if Watson isnt able to carry the load.

That, he says, could lead to a youth movement, starting with the Colorado Buffaloes star.

My guess? Flacco is out by the end of September, Pickett gets fried by the Vikings and Steelers in October, and the struggling Browns go to Sanders for a mid-October home matchup with Miami, Gagnon wrote.

Even that should be a roller-coaster ride, and Ill bet a team that is long out of it goes out of its way to get a look at Gabriel before the campaign comes to an end.

Gagnon ultimately predicts the Browns will roll with Sanders from Week 7 on, but will shift to Gabriel in Week 14 against the Titans.

What this means for the long-term futures of either quarterback remains to be seen.

But if Gagnons predictions hold true, it likely means Cleveland will once again find itself picking in the top five of the 2026 NFL Draft.
