Shedeur Sanders and Deshaun Watson battle for the Browns' QB1 job

What it means for your survivor pick

An open quarterback competition this deep into the offseason is exactly the kind of uncertainty survivor players should treat with caution. When a team doesn't know who's taking snaps in Week 1, you can't confidently project how the offense will function — and a shaky quarterback situation is one of the fastest ways to turn a paper favorite into a coin flip. Until the Browns name a clear starter and that starter shows he can run the offense, Cleveland isn't a name to lean on. Park them on your watch list, let the depth chart settle, and spend your safer, well-established teams first. If you're still building your board, our survivor analysis can help you sort the confident picks from the ones worth waiting on — and if you haven't yet, you can start a free survivor pool to put that strategy to work.
