Dillon Gabriel News
Saturday, April 25, 12:42 PM
The Cleveland Browns have "no plans" to trade quarterback Dillon Gabriel, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. The Browns have a very crowded quarterback room once again. Shedeur Sanders and Deshaun Watson are in the mix to start Week 1, Gabriel remains in a depth role, and Cleveland selected Arkansas quarterback prospect Taylen Green in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. The Browns likely won't carry four quarterbacks into the regular season, and it seems unlikely that they'd trade Sanders, Watson, or Green, so that would presumably position Gabriel as the odd man out. The former third-round pick out of Oregon played 10 games (six starts) as a rookie last year, completing 59.5% of his pass attempts for 937 passing yards, seven passing interceptions, and two interceptions. Schefter says Gabriel isn't a trade candidate, though. It will be interesting to see how the roster unfolds as the 2026 regular season gets closer. One potential solution is to carry Watson and Sanders as the active quarterbacks on gameday, make Gabriel the emergency third quarterback, and have Green start his career on the practice squad.

Drake Maye News
Thursday, May 7, 9:27 AM
When asked about the shoulder injury that bothered New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye (shoulder) down the stretch last year, he said he's doing "great," according to The Associated Press. "Nothing, nothing, no problems at all," Maye said, adding that he didn't require surgery. The 23-year-old former third overall pick out of North Carolina in 2024 finished second in the MVP voting in 2025 after an amazing regular season thanks to a soft schedule, but he really struggled in four postseason games, completing 70 of his 120 pass attempts for 828 yards, six touchdowns, and four interceptions while taking 21 sacks. Maye required a pain-killing injection in his right shoulder before the Super Bowl loss to the Seattle Seahawks, but his shoulder is all systems go this offseason, and he shouldn't have any physical limitations going into Year 3. Some fantasy managers will want Maye to prove it again in 2026, but after an outstanding sophomore season, RotoBaller has him ranked as a top-five QB. The Pats added receiver Romeo Doubs in free agency, and Maye's fantasy stock in redraft and dynasty formats will only be boosted if they trade for A.J. Brown, as is expected.
