We thought we had this figured out. Dorian Thompson-Robinson was doomed once the Philadelphia Eagles drafted Kyle McCord. A three-man depth chart at the quarterback position on a 53-man roster would almost certainly guarantee that Thompson-Robinson would be the odd-man-out.

Cleveland traded DTR and a 2025 fifth-round pick (originally from the Lions) to the Philadelphia Eagles for Kenny Pickett, who was a 2022 first-round pick. That deal was completed on March 10, before the Browns took either of their current rookie QBs, Sanders and Dillon Gabriel.
