It's no secret that the Browns have a longstanding history of not being able to find a franchise quarterback. From Brady Quinn, to Brandon Weeden, to the botching of Baker Mayfield, Cleveland has started 40(!) quarterbacks under center since 1999.
The infamous list, of course, includes Johnny Manziel. The former Heisman Trophy winner—who was selected by Cleveland out of Texas A&M with the No. 22 pick in the 2014 NFL draft—started just eight games for the Browns before a multitude of on- and off-the-field issues led to his release after two seasons.
