Charles Robinson joined Baskin and Phelps and shared his perspective on Deshaun Watson being named the Browns' starting quarterback and why he thinks it was obvious the organization was going in that direction. He talked about the pros and cons of Deshaun Watson winning the starting job, how it will impact Shedeur Sanders, and whether or not he thinks Watson will play in all 17 games this season. He also discussed the depth and talent of the 2027 draft class and whether or not he thinks the impending rookies will live up to the hype.
