Sure, there\u2019ll be clamoring for a quarterback with that pick. And maybe GM Andrew Berry and Co. decide either Shedeur Sanders or Cam Ward is worthy of that pick,\u201d Trapasso said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He believes the Raiders would then draft Shedeur Sanders with the No. 2 pick.<\/p>\n<p>The Browns, on the other hand, would draft WR\/DB prospect Travis Hunter at No. 6.<\/p>\n<p>As much as some fans would frown upon this thought, it actually makes plenty of sense.<\/p>\n<p>The Browns will reportedly pursue a veteran signal-caller in free agency anyway, so they might use whoever they sign as a bridge quarterback.<\/p>\n<p>The No. 2 pick is just too valuable to use on a player who might not be a franchise-caliber star.<\/p>\n<p>Shedeur Sanders and Cam Ward look like good prospects, but Hunter looks like a generational player.<\/p>\n<p>The Browns could use help at multiple positions besides quarterback anyway.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<div>\n<div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 Unfortunately, the Cleveland Browns might not be able to get their franchise quarterback in the 2025 NFL Draft.
