Shedeur Sanders finally gets good news in Browns' QB competition | Sporting News

Shedeur Sanders finally gets good news in Browns' QB competition | Sporting News

Cleveland trims its QB room to three as Kenny Pickett heads to Las Vegas, opening a late-season window for Cleveland’s rookies and Gabriel to test their mettle. Joe Flacco’s role fades as Sanders’ ascent becomes a real possibility if the Browns stumble, while three-QB depth shapes both immediate depth and long-term plans ahead of Cleveland’s 2026 draft strategy. Fantasy angles lean toward Sanders’ ceiling if he seizes any starting tweaks late season.

Which Browns QB scenario provides the clearest path for fantasy upside in the near term?Is Micah Parsons a weekly DFS captain in tournaments this season?Does Deshaun Watson’s return reshape the Browns’ fantasy landscape?Is there a late-season window to stash Kenny Pickett in dynasty leagues?

Tom Brady helps Shedeur Sanders secure a roster spot in Cleveland | Sporting News

Tom Brady helps Shedeur Sanders secure a roster spot in Cleveland | Sporting News

The Browns kept four quarterbacks on the 53-man roster, headlined by Shedeur Sanders and Dillon Gabriel, shifting the Browns’ QB plans after Kenny Pickett’s trade to the Las Vegas Raiders. Pickett heads to LV as Geno Smith’s backup in a deal that came after Aidan O’Connell fractured his wrist, prompting Vegas to pivot. With Pickett out, Sanders and Gabriel battle to back up 40-year-old Joe Flacco as Week 1 vs Cincinnati approaches.

Las Vegas’ move clears a path for the Browns to blood Sanders and Gabriel, who won spots alongside Flacco rather than forcing an external swap. The roster dynamics ripple into fantasy rosters, as Sanders/Gabriel could be kept for potential depth and development behind Flacco, while Pickett’s new role in Vegas reshapes the backup landscape.

Kenny Pickett, Sam Howell Both Make Dubious NFL History One Day Apart

Kenny Pickett, Sam Howell Both Make Dubious NFL History One Day Apart

Sam Howell and Kenny Pickett rewrote NFL trade history with three moves in four seasons apiece, a seismic note for fantasy managers. Howell’s arc runs Commander -> Seahawks -> Vikings -> Eagles, a carousel that tests week-to-week QB stability and fantasy reliability. Pickett’s path shuttles Steelers -> Eagles -> Browns, with Hurts anchoring Philly and a four-way QB battle shaping Browns’ ceiling. The piece threads these moves into the broader risk-and-reward calculus of late-round QB darts and dynasty value.

Kenny Pickett is traded to the Raiders, where he’ll back up Geno Smith

Philadelphia Inquirer

Kenny Pickett is traded to the Raiders, where he’ll back up Geno Smith

Kenny Pickett to the Raiders for a 2026 fifth-round pick reshapes QB depth, with Pickett backing Geno Smith as LV solidifies veteran insurance. Cleveland clears the path for Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders behind Joe Flacco, while Aidan O’Connell’s injury situation and Cam Miller’s readiness keep the Raiders and Browns’ QB rooms in flux. Week 1 projections shift as Browns lean on Flacco and Gabriel, and Raiders explore another experienced fallback behind Smith.

What is Kenny Pickett's fantasy value with the Raiders now that he’s backing Geno Smith?How should Browns fans and fantasy players treat Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders in 2025?What does the Cam Miller note mean for SEA’s QB development plan and fantasy outlook?Are there practical takeaways for fantasy managers from the latest QB movement across CLE and LV?

Kenny Pickett traded again: What each of QB's three moves can tell us about his teams (and his NFL future) - CBSSports.com

Kenny Pickett's NFL journey takes another turn as Cleveland releases Tyler Huntley and trades Pickett to the Las Vegas Raiders for a 2026 fifth-round pick. The three trades in two years highlight Pickett as a volatile, high-variance asset who flashed clutch moments but remains a backup-level option. Las Vegas inherits a risk with potential upside if injuries expose reps; fantasy minds should watch the Raiders' depth chart and the QB situation closely for Week 1 and beyond.

Given Pickett’s move to Las Vegas, how might his season unfold in a Raiders offense that’s still figuring out its quarterback depth?What is the immediate fantasy risk of Pickett’s Raiders stint for week-to-week lineups?How should Browns’ Gabriel and Sanders be viewed in dynasty leagues after Pickett’s departure?Does the Eagles’ depth-move history with Pickett affect fantasy expectations for Philadelphia’s offense this season?
