Key points
  • With the state of college football, especially with big NIL money, there is no certainty that any of the underclassmen will actually come out, but the group of QB prospects that are eligible for next year’s draft looks to be pretty good.
  • The Cleveland Browns have been building a young nucleus on their roster over the last two NFL drafts, but still lack certainty at the most important position in football: Quarterback.
  • Generally, Brugler does not give a positional bonus to players, including quarterbacks, and is instead just ranking them based on their talent grade.

What do you think of Brugler’s list and seeing 8 names in the Top 50 for the 2027 NFL draft?

With an extra first-round pick in the 2027 NFL draft, the Browns have already started scouting the upcoming quarterback class.

Additional details
  • For Cleveland fans hoping for a quarterback answer soon, Brugler’s rankings have to provide a level of excitement.
  • While it would be in the team’s best interest if Shedeur Sanders were able to claim that hard-to-find “Franchise QB” role, most analysts question or are skeptical that he will find that with the Browns, if ever.
  • At this point, more teams than not have some level of question about their signal caller of the future.
  • Does that mean all eight QBs will be great NFL players?
  • In general, if a team had a quarterback ranked 41st on their board, his positional value would make him a mid-1st-round selection, for example.
