Shedeur Sanders is finally off the clock.
Colorado's record-setting quarterback was selected with the 144th pick in the fifth round by the Cleveland Browns , who traded up to that pick on the NFL Draft's third day. He was the sixth quarterback taken in this year's draft, including Dillon Gabriel , who Cleveland selected in the third round with the 94th pick overall on Friday night.
The Browns' quarterback room entering mini-camps has Deshaun Watson , who is injured, Kenny Pickett , and Joe Flacco , who is 40 years old.
The speculation about why Sanders dropped has run rampant, especially in the draft coverage on television and on social media.
