MOBILE, Ala. -- Browns GM John Dorsey will meet with Wyoming's Josh Allen and Oklahoma's Baker Mayfield at the Senior Bowl, but has already indicated they're in the discussion for the Browns' pick at No. 1.

Others on the radar are USC's Sam Darnold, UCLA's Josh Rosen and possibly one more. Darnold and Rosen are not here at the Senior Bowl, but Dorsey and Hue Jackson will have a chance to interview Allen and Mayfield.

"In 2013, I had the first pick in the draft with the Kansas City Chiefs, and there really wasn't a quarterback prospect there,'' Dorsey told cleveland.com and a small group of reporters here. "Actually in this class there are four to five prospects that make you think at least are they worthy of that position. So now I think what you do is you let the process unfold.''

Dorsey selected Central Michigan offensive tackle Eric Fisher No. 1 overall in that lean quarterback year, and he's still the Chiefs' starting left tackle. The first quarterback chosen was EJ Manuel by the Bills at No. 16, and he proved to be a bust. He's gone 6-11 and is currently a Raiders backup. The Browns selected Bakrevious Mingo No. 6 that year.

But Dorsey has pick of the lot this year, and it could go down as one of the best quarterback classes in years. In addition to the popular four, Oklahoma State's Mason Rudolph and Louisville's Lamar Jackson are first-round candidates.

"You get to know each and every one of the prospects we talked about and we're months away from this process,'' said Dorsey. "We're at the beginning stages. Let's understand who they are as people, let's understand them as football players, let's see if they can be the face of the franchise. Are they the guys for the Cleveland Browns? That's how I look at this."

Dorsey was asked if it's safe to say he'll stay at No. 1 and take a quarterback.

"It's safe to say 'you never know,''' he said.

Allen, whom some experts, including ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr., believe should go No. 1 to the Browns, said Tuesday morning during a media day interview that he wants the Browns to leave the Senior Bowl thinking he can be their guy. Is that possible?

"Who knows?'' said Dorsey. "Let's meet him first and let's see how it unfolds and does he fit in the long-term plans of this organization? Those are the things you have to think through in the early stages of the process. But do I want to meet him as a person to see? Yeah, I do.''

Allen, who looks the part at 6-4 7/8, 237, has some accuracy concerns that he'll have to overcome throughout the pre-draft process. During the North team practice Tuesday afternoon, he fired some bullets that the receivers had a hard time securing, but also made several nice throws, including a few deep completions.

Dorsey acknowledged that he hasn't spent as much time on Allen as he has on Mayfield and others, but he's certainly willing and eager.

"It'll be fun,'' he said. "It'll be my first time. I didn't get a chance to see him play live. I actually saw Baker Mayfield play live, so that'll be fun to see him again. But any time you can get in an environment like the Senior Bowl and watch them work and watch them grow and develop, it's fun and then you'll see certain things that people have talked about and other things that may or may not stand out. But it's exciting."

Dorsey indicated it's the right year to have the No. 1 pick. The Browns also have the No. 4 pick and four selections in the top 35.

"Do I think it's a good (QB) class?'' said Dorsey. "I do.''

He reiterated his No. 1 criteria for a QB.

"Do they win?" he said. "Do they have the physical skills necessary to play that position? Do they have a strong arm? Do they have deep ball accuracy? Do they have feet? Can they extend a play? Are they a leader of men? We could go on and on, but at the end of the day it's about winning."

Asked about seeing Mayfield live, he said, "Well, he made the fans of Kansas upset, I can tell you that''

The reference was to Mayfield taunting the Kansas sidelines with his infamous crotch-grab that went viral.

But Dorsey indicated such things aren't dealbreakers.

"He's a Heisman Trophy winner, I think that speaks for itself,'' Dorsey said. "He had a wonderful season. Kind of where he came from and how he's gotten to where he is today, that's a tribute to him and the Oklahoma Sooner organization, the coaching staff there, so it will be fun to watch him participate here this week.''

Mayfield will practice for three days, but might not play in the game. He revealed Tuesday that his mom is ill. He said he'll make a decision later this week.

By then, the Browns will have spent time with both him and Allen, and will leave here with a better idea of whether they're worthy of No. 1.
