I'm certainly not an advocate of simply "drafting a QB to draft a QB". However I don't trust myself as being expert enough to evaluate college QB's.

I believe if they shore up the OL and get a legitimate #1 WR without drafting a QB those improvements alone will lead to more wins. Sanders has shown he isn't a terrible QB but none of us have any way to know how far or how much he will develop. Even at the level he is playing at now with better protection and a better running game the Browns would be quite capable of winning 5-8 games next year.

That would put the Browns much further down in the draft order and cost much more in resources to move up in the draft. That's not an ideal scenario. They are however now in that ideal scenario to where the cost would be much more palatable.

Once again I'm not advocating they simply draft a QB for the sake of drafting a QB. But if they identify their designated target and can get him, there would be no better time to do that than now.

Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.
