By Matt Reed

Shedeur Sanders was one of the most-hyped prospects entering the 2025 draft, however, after dropping to the fifth round and being selected after Oregon quarterback Dillon Gabriel, there's an interesting road ahead to see which Browns QB will be named the starter before the season kicks off.
While both rookies will have to compete with veterans like Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett and Deshaun Watson for the starting role, one NFL insider believes that Sanders may end up with the inside track to becoming Cleveland's number one behind center.
"There are people inside the Browns' facility who believe Shedeur Sanders can 100 percent be the starting quarterback," ESPN NFL reporter Kimberley Martin said recently.
The buzz around Sanders is going to continue even if he's not named the Browns' starter, and it's been shown by the attention he's gotten since being drafted, including the fact that the former Colorado star leads all rookies in jersey sales.
