NFL insider Brian Baldinger joins the show and admits he can't confidently predict whether Shedeur Sanders or Deshaun Watson starts Week 1, pointing to the Browns' fully rebuilt offensive line as the bigger swing factor than either quarterback. He praises new pass rusher Jared Verse's work ethic while noting he's not on Myles Garrett's level yet, and pushes back on the idea that Sanders' outside ventures (music, modeling, reality TV) are compatible with what NFL coaches expect from a 24/7 quarterback. Baldinger also weighs in on the wide receiver battle between Jerry Jeudy, KC Concepcion, Isaiah Bond and Denzel Boston, flags Arch Manning as QB1 for the 2027 draft class, and says Brendan Sorsby's decision not to play this year will likely hurt his draft stock.
