As the 2026 NFL season approaches, the Cleveland Browns are expected to make a significant move in the 2027 NFL Draft. They may trade up to the No. 1 overall pick with the Miami Dolphins, parting with multiple first-round selections to secure Oregon Ducks QB Dante Moore. This follows their decision to start Deshaun Watson over Shedeur Sanders, indicating a desire for a franchise quarterback. ESPN’s Jordan Reid hypothesizes that Moore, who shined in college, could be a transformative player for the Browns if they successfully execute this trade.
