I remember when Spurgeon Wynn was taken about 15 picks before Tom Brady. How did that work out?

Thanks for reminding me... even if the Browns had picked Brady though, they'd still be terrible. No one could succeed behind that o-line...

The craziness is off the charts when you think that, of the six QBs drafted before him, only Chad Pennington and Marc Bulger (not for Saints though) had a somewhat successful career. The biggest bust of them all is without doubt, Giovanni Carmazzi, who never played a game with the Niners, and reconverted as a goat farmer.

From 2006-2019, the Browns had 22 different starting quarterbacks.

In that same timeframe, the Chargers had exactly 1.

Thought the same thing. I figured he, Bridgewater, Brissett, and Taylor would have stopped in at some point. Was only right about the last two.

In ~237 years, 45 people have been US President. In ~27 years, 42 people have been a Cleveland Browns QB.

The Browns have been averaging 1.5 QBs a SEASON--for more than a quarter century. Abysmal.

For 12 of those years, the Browns shuffled no less than 3 QBs in each of those seasons, one time using four.
