Just ANOTHER Browns QB Situation Rant

Listen, we've all heard about the Browns QB situation since they've reentered the league. We all know the 3 guys the Browns have on the roster aren't the best players and aren't the most durable players. But I'm begging you as a fellow Browns fan to wait. Don't draft a QB this year. Or if you do, commit Kessler to being the week 1 starter. We're all tired of hearing about a QB contest and Hugh will see who the week 1 guy is going to be. I'm asking you to wait because I think in a couple years we may finally have an answer to a durable, playmaking QB that the Browns can have a shot at. His name is Francois, Deondre Francois, and he is special. I don't have any credibility when it comes to judging prospects, but I watched him all year and the guy is special. Francois is as tough as nails. He for sure has the durability that a QB needs to last 16 games in the AFC North. He took big hit after big hit and got up after each one to go and finish the game for his teammates. He led FSU to a bowl win over a Jim Harbaugh led defense. Browns fans if you want to see some of Francois' best plays, watch the Orange Bowl again.He can toss the long ball accurately and effectively. He isn't playing in a system where he has to be dual threat, but he does have mobility outside of the pocket. He reminds of a Cam Newton type guy, except he's going to dive at a fumble in the Super Bowl. And rather than using a third round pick on a QB like Davis Webb, how about the Browns build an AFC North quality defense and offensive line so that when he is available to enter the draft, we go into it having more than 1 in our win column. 

Update: I did some more game film, he is a redshirt freshman that means Hugh could be getting his hands on him as soon as the 2018 draft.
