The Cleveland Browns’ quarterback room is incredibly crowded, as the team is planning to hold a four-way quarterback competition in training camp between Kenny Pickett, Joe Flacco, Dillon Gabriel, and Shedeur Sanders.

With Deshaun Watson’s status for the 2025 season in doubt, Cleveland decided to be incredibly active in the quarterback market this offseason. However, one analyst believes the Browns could look to trade one of their signal-callers before the season, and it’s not Sanders.

Last Word on Sports’ Anthony Palacios lists Pickett as a potential trade candidate ahead of the 2025 campaign, with the Dallas Cowboys being tabbed as a possible landing spot for the former first-round quarterback.

“Even though the Cowboys got former Patriot draft pick quarterback Joe Milton, it doesn’t mean they can’t get another signal-caller. Pickett could be a safe veteran option similar to what Cooper Rush was before leaving for Baltimore,” Palacios wrote.

The Cowboys are likely locked in with Dak Prescott and Joe Milton as the top two quarterbacks. However, if the team plans to keep a third signal-caller, acquiring Pickett to add some more starting experience to the position group would be a savvy move from Jerry Jones.

If the Browns don’t want to move forward with Pickett as the starter, there’s really no reason to keep him, especially with the other three quarterbacks in Flacco, Gabriel, and Sanders on the roster. Trading the former Pittsburgh Steeler for a bit of draft capital would be a logical course of action.

Overall, trading Pickett is in the realm of possibilities for Cleveland. However, general manager Andrew Barry will likely keep him on the roster heading into the season, as Pickett will either serve as the starter or top backup.
