The Cleveland Browns find themselves in a challenging position as they search for a new quarterback. Holding the No. 2 overall pick in the upcoming NFL Draft, they could simply wait and select a promising prospect. However, discussions suggest a more aggressive approach might be on the table: trading for Kirk Cousins. The proposal involves sending star cornerback Denzel Ward to the Atlanta Falcons in exchange for Cousins, along with future draft picks.

While Cousins has proven to be a capable quarterback, concerns arise regarding his performance and hefty contract, which includes a significant cap hit. Given the Browns' current roster dynamics, trading Ward for an aging quarterback lacks logic unless Cousins is released and available at a reduced cost.
