Browns Pick #94, Dillon Gabriel QB, Oregon (aka, the Amari acquired pick)

This pick ensures that The Laptop remains defeated at picking QB's. The Gillberg of scouting QB's.

Look, I get the shit with Sanders and his ego. By the time this pick came out the kid was humbled, and it is an extra pick. So far you've been having a decent, if not pretty good draft. Take a flier with your extra 3rd rounder on Sanders and see if you've just pulled off a steal. He may fail, but he might succeed. This little Manlet is a permanent back up or 3rd stronger at best and you blew the pick anyways, so at least blow the pick on a high ceiling book or bust player.
 
Yep KoK. Agree agree.

Maybe there's more to the Sanders story than we know. It's the only reasonable explanation. Maybe he comes off as a total entitled asshole, but in this PC world, all anyone can say is "he's a fine young man".

I bet the Cowboys take a flyer on him.

Some of you need to seriously step off the ledge. He is hopefully a capable back-up to help us mitigate the salary cap hell they've created with the Watson trade.

Flacco is on a 1 year deal. Pickett has one year remaining on his rookie deal with a club option. Now we will have Gabriel on a rookie deal.

If he is capable (and I have no reason to believe he can't be): We will potentially go into next year with only Gabriel on the roster or Gabriel and Pickett. We draft our QBOTF in Rd1 and now we have 3 QB's on rookie contacts in the last year of Watson's salary cap created hell hit of $82M - which is now mitigated.

2026 potential:

QB1: Nuss, Cade, Allar
QB2: Pickett
QB3: Gabriel

FTR - I don’t love the Gabriel pick. But to make it make sense:
- Strongest arm at the combine (62 MPH)
- quick release- quick processor
- thrived in play-action
- mobile, moves well

Needs polish on reads & under center, but the raw tools are real. I'll take that as a back-up.

If you draft Sanders, you basically trap yourself. You can’t take a QB1 early in 2026 without facing major backlash from his dad, his team, and the media. You’d have to start him and ride it out for a couple years or deal with a circus. My guess? The Browns didn’t want that headache and they know next year’s draft has 3–4 QBs better than anyone in this class...which they positioned themself to attempt to get already.
 
After a night's rest and a heavy dose of copium, I can get behind this. IF his arm is adequate, this can work. 74.9 MPH throw at the Senior Bowl. One of the greatest college careers ever. There's a lot more to chew on than I initially thought.
