The answer at quarterback remains in question for the Cleveland Browns, and they decided to add another name to the competition to start for the team in 2026. Deshaun Watson is recovering from his Achilles injury, the team took Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders in last year's draft, and this year they added a true wild card in the sixth round, selecting Arkansas quarterback Taylen Green.

From a physical traits standpoint, Green has everything you could want: size, athleticism, and a strong arm. Green checks in at 6-foot-5, 227 pounds and ran a 4.37 40-yard dash and tested like a crazy athlete, earning himself a 9.99 out of 10 relative athletic score. He has the arm to make every throw on the football field.

The issue, however, is that he is still a work in progress on the football field; his decision-making as a passer is a major problem, and his accuracy is wildly inconsistent. If he can reach his ceiling, he could be a good quarterback, but right now he is far too raw. In the sixth round, his upside is more than worth the flyer, but he needs a lot of work and development.
