The Cleveland Browns have struggled to find a consistent quarterback since 1999. Sports analysts predict the team might pick a new quarterback in the 2027 NFL draft, possibly someone unexpected like Drake Lindsey, who has shown strong arm talent but is currently not widely known.
Key Facts
The Browns have tried 43 different quarterbacks since 1999.
Baker Mayfield and Kelly Holcomb are among the few with moderate success.
The Browns’ current quarterback hopefuls include Shedeur Sanders, Deshaun Watson, Dillon Gabriel, and Taylen Green.
Experts believe the Browns may draft a quarterback near the top of the 2027 draft.
CBS Sports analyst Mike Renner suggests the Browns could pick Drake Lindsey, a lesser-known quarterback with a very strong arm.
Lindsey played as Minnesota’s starter last year, throwing for 2,382 yards, 18 touchdowns, and six interceptions.
Several other quarterbacks are considered first-round prospects for the 2027 draft, but Lindsey is not yet among the top names.
There is a chance that Sanders or Watson could perform well enough in 2026 to keep their positions long-term.
