Sitting at 1-5 on the season, the Cleveland Browns fanbase is in a familiar position: hunting mock drafts and looking for the next quarterback. In a new mock draft, the Browns get that new quarterback in the polarizing Colorado headliner Shedeur Sanders.
Daft on Draft had the Browns selecting the Colorado quarterback with the second overall pick in the draft. As for their reasoning? Take a look:
“The Browns owe their current quarterback (who sucks) $46 million annually. They need one on a rookie contract (who doesn’t suck), so they go out and get the only quarterback I think is truly worthy of being taken in the first round in this class in Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders.
Head coach Kevin Stefanski finally has a quarterback who can stand in the pocket like an adult, throw with precision, and hit a backside dig in the face of pressure.”
It seems to be an issue, mainly among fans, that his dad and Colorado head coach Deion Sanders is going to meddle in his draft slot. The issue with this thought, however, is the millions Sanders would lose out on if he were to drop from the second overall pick to say, the tenth overall pick to the Las Vegas Raiders. This talking point is more than likely overblown.
Besides, you cannot tell me there is no intrigue to Deion and the quarterback to be the one to turn the Cleveland Browns around for good.
