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

What I've read, and it somewhat checks out, is if you're going to be a short QB, you better be elite at something.

Murry is fast.
Wilson is a multi-sport pro athlete
Bryce is still starting, but still TDB as the QBoTF.

Gabriel took 6 college years to become draftable. We over drafted him. He was ranked, on average, as QB7-9, in a weak QB class.
No harm in giving him a chance, but he's a small 5'10" dude without an elite trait, who was on a stacked team at Oregon. Sanders, by contrast, has been called "a big 6-2". Has the lower body to shred a tackler, which he did a lot in college.

Having said that, I'd love for any of our current QB's to ball out. Don't care who.

Let's let's not use kid gloves to appease the delicate feelings of clueless idiots who are now on my blocked list:

Gabriel is trash. You know it. I know it. Anyone who has played the game of football as opposed to jerking off horses out in the plains and screwing their cousins knows Gabriel is garbage. He was a 7th round/UDFA prospect taken in the 3rd round. It was retardation by Sashi Clown 2.0.

He is a midget with marginal ability, Colt McCoy's arm strength and you said it yourself, a guy so mediocre it took 6 years of trying before he declared for the draft.

It is absolutely laughable there are people out there so braindead they think he is going to become some elite franchise QB.
 
According to Nathan Zegura, Gabriel was always Plan A for the QB Room this year after it became clear Ward was gone. So far has been what they expected, and is probably in lead for first crack after the vets.
 
I want to make this note for Gabriel since I've become the Town Gabriel Defender. As someone who has actually made some impressive predictions on this forum, with my first post here being about Derrick Henry prior to his Draft. I wanted him bad in the 2nd in '16. I'll do the same for Gabriel here. Outside of his NCAA records (1st Passing TDs, 2nd Passing Yards, 1st Starts), he is also the all-time leader in Hawaiian Passing Yards and 2nd in Passing TDs.

Sanders, who I like, doesn't even come close to touching these statistical anomolies and accumiliation. We're talking volume stats that are simply eye-popping from the time Gabriel became a teenager to today. Simply the most productive QB in football history prior to becoming a professional.

Short jokes on this page belong in the middle school hallway. Some of us are interested in talking football.

I hope I'm wrong, but it took him forever to be draftable. He's a small 205. He just is. Size does matter. You can be too big of QB, or OL for that matter, and you can be too small. I'm not saying that seals the deal. It's not like he's 5'6". But, he is a small QB who took a long time to be draftable. He was ranked as QB7-9 range in a weak QB draft.

Maybe he'll prove everyone wrong, and it's going to have to be darn near everyone, but it's far from likely.

"Oldest QB recruit ever"?!
So you forgot the Browns drafted Brandon Weeden who had 36 grand children when he was drafted and was late to be eligible because he served under Napoleon.

Having good stats (completion % mostly) and volume of production actually does correlate with NFL productivity, because it means a QB can throw the ball to where it needs to be and big numbers mean he has experience.
Wouldnt you know that experience is important. World shocking, I know.
Does this mean Dillon is good? No. Does this mean he has the odds with him? Yes.

"A QB is only as good as his Oline".
I wonder what you think this means.

A QB has better odds when he can see over it
