This has been going on so long it's hard to imagine anything else.
Who is going to be the quarterback?
1.0 What if DW beats out Shedeur and becomes the starter?
2.0 If that happens what is the future for Shedeur and DW?
3.0 Would the Browns seriously consider an extension for DW?
4.0 Would there be a future for Shedeur in Cleveland?
5.0 Will this all lead to moving Myles?
1.0 Early reports are DW has an edge. It is still too early. However, IMO Monken will move quickly because he wants his starter to get the reps in a new offense. If he does DW will need to stay healthy and get positive results.
2.0 If Shedeur cannot win this job then his value to the team goes down. He needs to win the job and show improvement in order to retain the job. If DW wins the job and keeps it through the season. His future with the team will depend upon how well he plays.
3.0 It would be hard to imagine DW getting an extension. However, if he was really good and the team won a lot of games and won playoff games. Yes, an extension would not be out of the question.
4.0 IMO Shedeur has to win the job and then play well. He has to win games and demonstrate that he can become a true franchise quarterback. If not his future with the team would be in doubt.
5.0 Myles is most likely going nowhere. If the season goes down the tubes and the team wins like 4 games or less. They will have a high draft pick. For Myles to be traded by the Browns IMO they would have to see a difficult path to a quarterback in the draft.

1. If Watson wins the starting job and earned it then he deserves to be the starter. If your on the 53 then best player plays.
2. If Watson starts the season and things go bad then Sanders will again get a shot. If Watson and the team play well then Sanders needs to learn how to be #2.
3. If Watson plays good enough for an extension, then yes.
4. He would clearly be the #2 QB on the roster and if Watson and the team does well they will not be in position to draft another QB so if Sanders continues to develop and does not cause drama he can be #2. Injuries happen how long he stay #2 or when he gets another chance to start that will depend on his performance at that time.
5. If the team is bad and out of the running by the trade deadline I think Garrett will go for a ransom that the FO will use to acquire a new QB in next years draft.

That's simply too much to wade through. So I'll keep this short.
First this is a contract year for DW. His future depends on playing well. The gravy train won't be flowing to his door next year if he doesn't play well this season. If after flopping around like a fish washed up on the beach for four years he plays lights out this season, it will only confirm to me that he is who I thought he was.
Secondly, DW never wanted to be here. He had a no trade clause and took the Browns off the list if teams he was willing to be traded to until Haslam backed up the Brinks truck. He came here just for the cash to a destination he didn't want to be in you can bet your ass he's looking to get away from here now.
There are 31 other teams in the league. None of this is as simple as the Browns just giving DW an extension.
Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

[...]
3. If Watson plays good enough for an extension, then yes. I agree on all your points, but I do think that just because 1 happens doesn't necessarily mean that 3 will happen. I think the likelihood of 1 happening is FAR higher than 3.
