From the article

Shedeur Sanders will likely get an opportunity to start at some point this season if he isn't the Week 1 starter... if forced to choose between the two, it isn't close. I'd take Sanders every time.

Likely to start this season; source prefers him over Watson.

Browns QB likely to get an opportunity to start at some point this season if not Week 1 starter. The source prefers Sanders over Watson and Sorsby, stating 'if forced to choose between the two, it isn't close. I'd take Sanders every time' when comparing Sanders to Watson; positioned as the more viable QB option despite the Browns' overall QB room dysfunction.
