‘Don’t damage another young QB’: The critical decision facing the Browns in the 2026 NFL Draft
“No. 1 overall in ’21, Trevor Lawrence, and his coach Urban Meyer is fired at midseason,” Pluto pointed out. “And of course in ’18, the Browns drafted Baker Mayfield, and Hue Jackson was fired.”
Since Mayfield left, 11 different quarterbacks have started a game for the Browns, including the team's latest starter, Shedeur Sanders. Meanwhile, Allen has been Buffalo's starter since he arrived there, and last season, he was named the NFL's MVP.
The Cleveland Browns could be in the market for a new quarterback in the first round, depending on who is available with the top draft choices.
