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.
 
This one looks like a carbon copy of DTR. But slightly shorter.
Can put plenty of mustard on his fastball. Has good mobility.
At least Berry did finally give up on DTR and let him go in a trade after he had his shot.
I'm expecting the same from this one.
Expected to step in when the starter is in the blue tent or in concussion protocol.
I don't believe DTR was ever really expected to be a starter.
