Summary

Quarterback Rank: #29All Players: #237

Weeden is another rookie quarterback that started last season and played pretty well considering the circumstances. He did have more interceptions (17) than touchdowns (14) but threw for nearly 3,400 yards and completed 57 percent of his passes. Like many young quarterbacks, he was up and down in his first stint as starter. Weeden didn't exactly prove he is the franchise quarterback for the Browns, though, and with a new coaching staff in place, his days as starter could be numbered. He'll need to prove to the new coaches he is the man for the job. Weeden brings some positives to the table. He is an accurate quarterback with a strong arm and quick release. Weeden is capable of the big game, having three 300-yard games last season. He does struggle reading defenses some, though, and turns the ball over too much right now. Plus, he struggled in the red zone at times last season.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Weeden isn't guaranteed anything when it comes to starting so he is a risk for fantasy teams. But if he wins that starting job, he has some upside in what should be a better offense. His new coaches have a history of producing solid fantasy quarterbacks. So if starting, we think Weeden can produce well in a backup role for fantasy teams. He could get 3,700 yards and 24 or so touchdowns.

Notes

May 16 02:32 pm

Cleveland Browns head coach Rob Chudzinski said the team likely will continue to use QB Brandon Weeden with the first-team offense and QB Jason Campbell with the second-team offense during organized team activities but it is too early to name a starting quarterback.

Cleveland Browns QB Brandon Weeden opened up this week at the team's offseason team activities as the starter, with QB Jason Campbell relegated to second-team duties. It appears that the starting quarterback job will be Weeden's to lose this year. The team is hoping Weeden fits better in head coach Rob Chudzinski's aerial attack than he was in former head coach Pat Shurmur's West Coast offensive system.

Although Cleveland Browns QB Jason Campbell will receive a chance to compete for the team's starting quarterback job, QB Brandon Weeden will most likely start in Week 1. The only way Weeden doesn't is if he struggles in training camp and the preseason. He has the strong arm that should mesh well in an offense run by head coach Rob Chudzinski and offensive coordinator Norv Turner.

May 03 09:32 am

Cleveland Browns head coach Rob Chudzinski said Thursday, May 2, that he is not yet ready to hand the starting quarterback job to QB Brandon Weeden, even though the team did not select a quarterback in the NFL Draft. 'I feel good about where we're at right now,' Chudzinski said. 'He's been working with the first group and we'll just see as we go forward. We're (working) on air right now so it's very early but I do like what I've seen so far and we'll see how it goes. Right now it's too early to say anything one way or another.' Weeden will compete with QB Jason Campbell for the job.

Apr 21 12:02 am

The Cleveland Browns made it clear this offseason that they want QB Brandon Weeden to take more of a leadership role, and he's accepted the challenge. He is the clear-cut starter over QB Jason Campbell, although the coaches still could still use the newcomer Campbell if they feels he gives them the best chance to win. Since current management did not draft Weeden, he is believed to have less room for error.

Cleveland Browns QB Brandon Weeden is not concerned about the team possibly drafting a quarterback in the first round. 'It's the nature of this business,' he said. 'There's always speculation. It's this time of year. We're however many days away from the draft, but I'm worried about me. I can't control the other stuff. I'm going to continue to learn this offense. I'm going to continue to get better as a player and grow from year one to year two.'
