Cleveland Browns 2026 Preview: QB Chaos, Fantasy & Best Bets | Stephie Smalls Show (Ep 258)

The Cleveland Browns enter 2026 with a new head coach, a chaotic quarterback situation and a rebuild that might be more coherent than it first appears. Stephie Smalls is joined by Footballguys analyst and sports betting expert Sam Wagman to break down Deshaun Watson versus Shedeur Sanders, Todd Monken’s offense, the Myles Garrett trade and whether Cleveland can clear its 5.5-win total.

Stephie and Sam also examine the fantasy football value of Quinshon Judkins, Dylan Sampson and Harold Fannin Jr., plus rookie receivers Denzel Boston and KC Concepcion. Sam gives out a Denzel Boston Offensive Rookie of the Year long shot, Stephie targets Fannin’s receiving-yard prop and both become dangerously excited about Jared Verse leading the NFL in sacks at 75-to-1.
