Ken Sets His Line: No More Diamond-in-the-Rough QB Gambles
Podcast: The Ken Carman Show with Anthony LimaPublished On: Fri Aug 07 2026
Description: Ken and Anthony follow up on the Akron promotion talk before pivoting to the Browns, with Ken conceding he was won over but firmly telling fans he won't chase any more "diamond in the rough" quarterback prospects like Carson Beck, Malik Willis, or Brennan Soresby if the position stays unresolved into next year's draft. He argues this season already counts as a developmental year and next year the team needs to commit fully to a top quarterback prospect rather than gambling on mid-round names again. Ken and Anthony debate a hypothetical where Todd Monken reunites with Beck, his former Georgia and Miami quarterback, while also raising the uncomfortable point that two different Browns coaching staffs, with very different philosophies, still haven't fully bought into Shedeur Sanders
