It’s been an eventful two years for former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett. After the Steelers went 3-0 down the stretch to close the 2023 season under Mason Rudolph , clinching a playoff berth in the process, the writing appeared to be on the wall for the University of Pittsburgh product. The Steelers signed Russell Wilson on the first day of the 2024 league year, which led to Pickett requesting a trade. Pittsburgh sent him to Philadelphia , and he was the backup quarterback to Jalen Hurts when the Eagles defeated the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX. In the 2025 offseason, Pickett was traded once again, as he was dealt to the Cleveland Browns for a fourth-round pick. According to Pickett’s former college coach, Pat Narduzzi, the trade away from Philadelphia is a move that Pickett wanted very badly. “The Eagles did not want to trade him,” Narduzzi said on 99.9 The Fan . “He begged to be traded because he wanted to compete, and he felt like he wasn’t going to have a chance to beat out Jalen Hurts.” Pickett competed throughout the spring and summer of 2025 to be the Browns’ starter alongside Joe Flacco , Dillon Gabriel , and Shedeur Sanders . When it was made clear Flacco would be the starter, the Browns traded Pickett to the Las Vegas Raiders . He now finds himself with the Carolina Panthers after signing as a free agent.

By this time next week, all 32 NFL teams will have reported to training camp for the 2026 season. Camp content flooding the internet is a major indicator that fantasy football drafts are right around the corner. Before we start building championship rosters, it’s important to monitor training camp battles at each position for certain teams in order to get a grasp on the value of certain players. Let’s look at some key quarterback and running back training camp battles that are the most relevant for fantasy football purposes. Candidates: Deshaun Watson, Shedeur Sanders, Dillon Gabriel Baker Mayfield in 2020 is the last time the Browns have had one quarterback start every game in a single season. Aside from Mayfield, Cleveland has had 12 different quarterbacks start at least one game over the last five seasons. That includes Deshaun Watson , Shedeur Sanders and Dillon Gabriel , all of whom will compete for the starting job in 2026, as well. New head coach Todd Monken did preview this training camp battle during OTAs stating that the Browns had “two starting-level quarterbacks,” referring to Watson and Sanders. To be blunt, it’s difficult to get excited about either of the two and, as a result, any of the pass catchers in Cleveland. Watson is returning from two Achilles tears in October 2024 and January 2025. Sanders started seven games last season, averaging just 193.2 passing yards per game. The Browns did draft KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston with the 24 th and 39 th picks, respectively, but Jerry Jeudy did draw 106 targets last season and, as of now, is still on the team. Harold Fannin Jr. had one of the greatest rookie seasons ever for a tight end, recording a 72/731/6 receiving line on 107 targets. He is probably the safest pick regardless of which quarterback is out there for the Browns. Fannin no longer has to compete with David Njoku for snaps. He also averaged 13.5 PPR points per game with Sanders at quarterback, compared to 10.5 points per game with a combination of Gabriel and Joe Flacco . Candidates: Fernando Mendoza, Kirk Cousins Las Vegas has a new face of the franchise in quarterback Fernando Mendoza, the first overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. However, they signed veteran Kirk Cousins just a few weeks before selecting Mendoza. This is significant especially in consideration to minority owner Tom Brady ’s opinion on rookie quarterbacks. He’s on record back in 2024 expressing his thoughts that it’s “a tragedy that we’re forcing these rookies to play early.” There’s really no reason for Mendoza to take the field as a rookie. Las Vegas is still a work in progress in regard to legitimately competing with the Chiefs, Chargers and Broncos in the AFC West. The Raiders also don’t have much beyond Brock Bowers in the passing game. Tre Tucker , Jalen Nailor and Jack Bech top the depth chart at wide receiver. So, while there is still an opportunity at a training camp battle between Mendoza and Cousins, it’s likely the latter who is out there in Week 1. Based on what we saw now Vegas head coach, but then Seattle offensive coordinator, Klint Kubiak, do with the Seahawks’ offense last season, Bowers and Ashton Jeanty are still priority picks for fantasy football even if Cousins starts the entirety of the season. Falcons candidates: Tua Tagovailoa, Michael Penix Jr. Vikings candidates: Kyler Murray, J.J. McCarthy Tua Tagovailoa is owed $54 million in guaranteed money this season. However, the Miami Dolphins are on the hook for just over $52 million of it following his release. Meanwhile, the Falcons, who signed Tua to a one-year deal, paid just $1.215 million to do so. It’s a bargain for a team in desperate need of someone to support a star-studded group of offensive playmakers that includes Bijan Robinson , Drake London and Kyle Pitts Sr. While there may appear to be a training camp battle between Tua and Michael Penix Jr., it’s hard to imagine Penix as the Week 1 starter after tearing his ACL last November; the third of [... truncated ...]

The Cleveland Browns first played a professional football game in 1946. Since then, through eight league championships, painful playoff losses, puzzling draft choices, head coaches that ranged from the legendary (Paul Brown) to the worst in NFL history (Hue Jackson), and memorable players, the Browns have had a player quite like quarterback Shedeur Sanders. A fifth-round draft choice in 2025 after a fall that, if the fringe elements are to be believed, was only stopped because the league office called the Browns and ordered general manager Andrew Berry to take action, Sanders navigated a rookie season where nonsense was never more than a moment away. The draft conspiracy turned into the head coach trying to sabotage his career conspiracy, which morphed into the lack of first-team reps conspiracy, which then became the no one could succeed with the supporting cast conspiracy. (That last one may actually have some merit, except that fellow rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel was working with the same limitations but never got the same free pass as Sanders.) The sad part is that none of this comes from Sanders himself. While perhaps a bit goofy at times – name another quarterback who would give his head coach a porcelain horse head as a birthday present – Sanders comes across as well liked by his teammates and is putting in the work to improve, which has not always been the case with quarterbacks in this town. With the Browns just a few weeks away from the start of training camp and facing the most depressing quarterback camp battle imaginable, it seems like the outside noise should be quieting down. But putting Sanders’ name in a headline or a sound bite results in clicks, which is why the following stories apparently exist. Even though head coach Todd Monken likely knows who the starting quarterback will be, he has yet to make it public, as he wants to wait for a few training camp practices to confirm his decision. And even if Deshaun Watson comes out the “winner,” given his injury history and the history of Cleveland quarterbacks this century, the Browns are going to need more than one quarterback this fall. That hasn’t stopped the trade rumors from spreading, of course, with the New York Jets and Miami Dolphins “emerging” as the top landing spots if the Browns decide to move on from Sanders, according to The Times of India . Unless Jerry Jones swoops in and brings Sanders to the Dallas Cowboys to back up Dak Prescott , a possibility according to Pro Football Sports Network . But wait! Pro Football Sports Network also believes that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers would be interested in having Sanders as a backup option to Baker Mayfield , who is entering the final year of his contract amid uncertainty about his long-term future with Tampa . (And wouldn’t Mayfield and Sanders have some stories to share about playing in Cleveland!) As hard as it may be for some to understand, the Browns might actually be comfortable keeping Sanders on the roster no matter how things play out this summer. Jason La Confora recently explored that possibility at something called Sports Boom , which quoted an anonymous general manager as saying, “Monken loves this kid. Why would they trade him now?” Love might be a bit of a strong word to use on a quarterback coming off one of the worst rookie seasons in the last 25 years, but Monken has spoken favorably about Sanders and all of his quarterbacks, so we’ll let that pass for the time being. Does any of these add up to anything significant? Not really. It is more the reality of the NFL’s slow season meeting the insatiable appetite of the content machine, combined with the Sanders name, driving a lot of speculation without much substance behind it. The good news is that the Browns open training camp at the end of this month, which means we will all have something tangible to discuss. Now you’ll excuse us while we get to work refreshing the training camp quarterback tracker

The Cleveland Browns have a full quarterback room. Here at DBN , we have reported on veteran Deshaun Watson being the starter , the possibility that Shedeur Sanders will evolve into the starting QB , Dillon Gabriel not being out of the equation , and how rookie Taylen Green should develop. But not a single word that the Browns are attempting to bring Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby into the fold. RELATED: NFL SUPPLEMENTAL DRAFT OFF THE TABLE FOR SORSBY Plenty of ink has been devoted to who Sorsby is and the journey that might bring him onto Cleveland’s roster. But no quotes from GM Andrew Berry, head coach Todd Monken (quite the opposite, in fact, with Monken), or any other front office personnel stating they are interested, or are going to bring him in. Lots of conversations about the possibility of Sorsby being selected by the Browns. But no proof. Nobody from the Browns has said publicly that they will become the team that is able to get him and bring him into the training camp scenario. And you won’t hear anything. GMs and other team personnel don’t discuss these matters with anyone outside of the organization. They will “Hollywood talk” you to death with answers to questions such as, “We will continue to evaluate our options,” or “We are pleased with the quarterbacks we have under contract, but always look to assess our situation at every position.” That didn’t answer anything. And all media sites are going to ask the hard questions, already knowing they will get the generic answers. Still, it’s what we do, and we media folk have to print something. But no, they aren’t going to divulge anything. It is a subject that may or may not affect Cleveland. Nobody from the Browns front office or coaching staff ever mentioned that they had an interest in him, but then again, they wouldn’t. Because the draft process for the Supplemental version is by bidding, the franchise has no incentive to discuss their feelings if they are interested in him. No GM will divulge their strategy at any time. Teams have traded up to grab a guy in front of one of their division teams because they believed the division foe was going to snare him on intel they received. Sorsby’s situation is a mess. He dug his own grave, and whatever is going on with the remainder of his football career is on him. He wanted to go back to college because he had an NIL eval of $5 million. But realistically, what advertisers were going to be interested? Who made that evaluation? His agent? Teams in the same conference were about to bail on Tech. Teams in other sports had already begun the process, as their volleyball had suffered some cancellations. Looking at his stats, he is a good player with a ton of talent, but is he considered an elite prospect? A franchise QB? Exceptional runner, but Sorsby’s passing stats don’t scream anything other than an above-average passer. He may have been a Texas Tech QB, but he never played a game with them. All of his best stats were with Cincinnati, which never really did anything. The issue is that nobody wants a quarterback who will throw a game because he has money riding on the other team. A missed throw here, an interception in the fourth quarter, an untimely fumble. More than any other position, the QB has the opportunity on every single offensive down to alter the game’s outcome. Sorsby can’t enter the NFL as expected through the Supplemental Draft . He can’t go back to play college football. Perhaps he can play in the Canadian Football League (CFL) this year, although their season is already underway. Then, enter the NFL draft next April under normal draft circumstances after sitting out an entire season. However, on Friday, another roadblock for Sorsby. The CFL announced that they are shutting him out from signing with any of their clubs. Dawgs by Nature has obtained a copy of the statement issued by the CFL league office. It states: “Upholding the integrity of the league and ensuring fair competition are par

Training camp for the Cleveland Browns doesn’t begin until mid-July , but the news cycle doesn’t stop. As it stands, the current quarterback room is below average, based on past performance. Deshaun Watson hasn’t played close to what he did with the Houston Texans . Shedeur Sanders is entering his second year, but his rookie season didn’t show enough for the team to warrant a long-term commitment. Dillon Gabriel ’s ceiling has been established as a backup, and Taylen Green is a development project. A room filled with many questions and not a lot of talent. It doesn’t stop the trade rumors from circulating. Earlier on Monday, trade rumors surrounding quarterback Shedeur Sanders materialized . Rumors are different from reports. Rumors can turn into reports with credible backing, or the rumors end up not gaining any traction. Here is what we know from the information gathered surrounding Sanders, and if a trade is possible: There is a difference between talks and calls in terms of trades. “Talks” are essentially discussions that could grow into a deal, while “calls” are teams calling about specific players but do not rise to the level of “talks.” It’s possible that the Browns are initiating calls instead of receiving calls about Sanders. “His market is low because the tape last season wasn’t spectacular.” One team that has an interest in Sanders is the San Francisco 49ers . The odds of Sanders getting moved would have increased if the Browns were to draft quarterback Brendan Sorsby in the upcoming NFL Supplemental Draft, which is now off the table . The chatter around the league surrounding Sanders is more about him being a “project that needs to be developed.” The Browns aren’t committed to any quarterback in this current room. If they were, there wouldn’t be a QB competition, the trade of Myles Garrett , and even hints of “talks” would be shut down quickly. Minicamp and mandatory OTA’s do not tell us a lot about this competition, but training camp and joint practices will. The rumors can be something, or they can be nothing. In the Browns case, you never know. Considering how Sanders was a fifth-round pick and his rookie tape hasn’t done anything to warrant a long-term commitment, it wouldn’t be surprising if Cleveland were willing to move off of Sanders. The NFL is fluid; anything can change, but these rumors should be considered “calls,” not “talks” for now

It’s clear that the Cleveland Browns have a plan at the quarterback position this year, and Todd Monken is seemingly willing to go into it with a completely open mind when it comes to the Deshaun Watson situation. From a fan standpoint, it’s easy to see why this is annoying, but from a football standpoint, it’s probably the correct way to handle the quarterback room right now with the options that the team currently has. If this team is going to win football games in 2026, every player in the quarterback room has to correct some things in the way they play, whether that’s a mental or physical part of playing the position. Watson absolutely has to stop playing so recklessly on the field. If he continues to impress this offseason and ends up being the starter for 2026, he must understand that his days of scrambling around and running the ball are behind him. He has to be able to stay healthy for more than 6-7 games, which is something that he hasn’t done since arriving in Cleveland. Sanders showed a lot of promise in 2025, but one of his biggest problems was the simple fact that he held onto the ball for too long. There were countless times when he had a player open underneath fairly early in the play, but he decided to hold onto the ball so he could find a better option downfield. He needs to stop being a “big game hunter” and learn to take what the defenses give him each play. Consistently delivering balls quickly at the intermediate level of the field is what this coaching staff needs him to do in the new offense. Gabriel has to work on his performance under pressure. He already has obvious size limitations, and when defenders closed in on him, his fundamentals broke down. His footwork gets really sketchy, forcing him to make some off-platform throws, which naturally reduces accuracy. It’s going to be hard for him to stand tall in the pocket (pun intended) and deliver throws in the face of pressure, so he needs to find ways to adapt in 2026. Green is viewed as a developmental project at quarterback, so in terms of what he has to do before the season begins is pretty inconsequential this year. He just has to continue improving as a passer and prove that he could be effective as a wildcat option if Todd Monken wants to use him in that way as a rookie
The Los Angeles Rams have been blessed with some of the most talented quarterbacks in NFL history. From big-armed gunslingers to surgical passers and clutch postseason heroes, every era has featured a quarterback who excelled in a particular area. But what if you could combine the best traits from multiple Rams signal-callers and build the perfect quarterback? That’s the challenge. You get to make the picks. Let’s start with the easiest category to debate: arm strength. Are you taking Matthew Stafford and his rocket arm? Stafford has made throws that few quarterbacks in NFL history would even attempt, fitting passes into impossible windows and launching deep balls from awkward platforms. His ability to generate velocity remains one of the defining traits of his career. Or do you lean toward another Rams passer with elite arm talent? The choice is yours, but Stafford’s cannon certainly sets the standard. Throwing hard is one thing. Throwing accurately is another. Would you value the touch and placement of Jim Everett’s deep ball? Everett routinely dropped passes over defenders and into the hands of receivers in stride during some of the most productive passing seasons of the late 1980s. Or are you taking Kurt Warner during the Greatest Show on Turf years? Warner’s anticipation and ball placement helped transform the Rams into one of the most explosive offenses football has ever seen. His ability to hit receivers exactly where they needed the football often turned short gains into game-breaking plays. Who gets your vote? Quarterbacking is as much mental as it is physical. Warner’s pre-snap recognition and ability to diagnose defenses made him one of the smartest quarterbacks of his generation. Stafford also deserves consideration for his mastery of Sean McVay’s offense and his ability to manipulate coverages before the snap. Maybe you prefer the experience and command displayed by Roman Gabriel during his era. When the defense disguises everything and the clock is ticking, which Rams quarterback are you trusting to make the correct read? This category isn’t necessarily about running for 1,000 yards. It’s about movement within the pocket, escaping pressure, and keeping plays alive. Stafford’s pocket movement has been underrated throughout his career, while Warner mastered subtle movements that allowed him to buy precious extra seconds. Everett also showed impressive footwork in maneuvering through collapsing pockets. Heck, does Ty Simpson generate consideration considering he may have a unique skill that no other Rams quarterback can claim to this point? Who provides the mobility and footwork component of your perfect Rams quarterback? Now comes the toughest decision. The game is tied in the fourth quarter. Two minutes remain. The season is on the line. Which Rams quarterback are you trusting? Is it Warner, whose postseason heroics helped deliver a Super Bowl championship? Is it Stafford, who led multiple game-winning drives during the Rams’ Super Bowl run in 2021? Vince Ferragamo showed his clutch ability in 1979 Divisional Game against the Dallas Cowboys ? Maybe you prefer another Rams legend who always seemed at his best when the pressure was highest. Fourth quarter. Overtime. One drive to win. Who gets the ball? Now it’s time to build your perfect Rams quarterback. Arm Strength: __________ Touch/Placement: __________ IQ/Processing Ability: __________ Mobility/Footwork: __________ Clutch Ability: __________ Would your creation look a lot like Matthew Stafford? Would Kurt Warner dominate several categories? Does Jim Everett deserve more recognition for his accuracy and deep-ball touch? There are no wrong answers, which is what makes this debate so much fun. Every Rams era has produced quarterbacks with unique strengths, and every fan will value different traits. The only question left is this: if you could combine the best qualities from every Rams quarterback in franchise history, who would ma
