However, the team isn\u2019t concerned and doesn\u2019t expect \u201cCoach Prime\u201d to stand in the way if the NFL draft plays out that way.<\/p>\n<p>Shedeur Sanders is expected to be one of the first quarterbacks selected in April. The Browns need a quarterback and hold the No. 2 overall pick, behind only the Tennessee Titans. If the Browns do their homework on Sanders and want to select him, general manager Andrew Berry doesn\u2019t see it being an issue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have a lot of respect for Coach Prime. I think the program that he\u2019s built at Colorado is (impressive) with hard-nosed, tough, disciplined kids,\u201d Berry told Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com at the Senior Bowl. \u201cI have a ton of respect for him and all the players coming out of that program. That\u2019s evident not only with Shedeur but all the kids who were at the Shrine Game from Colorado. You could really see his impact on them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Shedeur Sanders was approached by a former Colorado teammate in a social media clip at the Shrine Bowl and addressed the idea of going to the Browns.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t know where I\u2019m going. I\u2019m just thankful, bro, wherever it\u2019s taking me,\u201d\u00a0Sanders said.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/01\/Browns_Wrapup_Football_48788-51e2d.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Browns GM confident Deion Sanders won't have issue with Shedeur playing in  Cleveland\" \/><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Browns May Not Select QB With No. 2 Pick<\/h2>\n<p>The Browns will address their quarterback situation this offseason. Deshaun Watson re-injured his Achilles, requiring a second surgery that will likely keep him out for the majority of next season. The injury doesn\u2019t change the Browns\u2019 plans too much. The team was expected to explore all their options this offseason anyway.<\/p>\n<p>But just because the Browns need a quarterback doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019ll use their high pick to select one. Penn State star pass-rusher Abdul Carter and Heisman winner Travis Hunter are other options that could be available.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s the most important position so you\u2019re gonna do a whole bunch of work on it every year, regardless of where your roster is,\u201d Berry said. \u201cBut you also don\u2019t want to force it if the right guy isn\u2019t there and feel compelled to reach at that spot. I don\u2019t think there are any hard truths about what you have to do at the top of the draft. I think the big thing is you have to do everything in your power to help you make the right decision.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Browns See Shedeur Sanders, Cam Ward as High-Quality Prospects<\/h2>\n<p>Some analysts believe this year\u2019s quarterback draft class lacks the same star power as last year\u2019s, which featured top talents like Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, Bo Nix, and Drake Maye, among others.<\/p>\n<p>But Berry isn\u2019t necessarily buying that a quality starting quarterback couldn\u2019t emerge from the crop.<\/p>\n<p id=\"JKCI74XT5JCJFPCETFMRXAWULE\">\u201cI think there are talented passers in this draft, and I would have a hard time believing that there\u2019s not at least one guy who will be a quality starter if not more,\u201d he said. \u201cI think a big part of it with these guys, it really is environment and surrounding them with the right environment that allows us to maximize them.\u201d<\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<p>That said, the notoriously tight-lipped Berry declined to go into the Browns\u2019 individual evaluations of those passers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There\u2019s been plenty of buzz about Deion Sanders potentially preventing his son, Shedeur, from playing for the Cleveland Browns.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":12222,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12221","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cleveland-browns"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
