Who Should I Start? Dillon Gabriel or Shedeur Sanders

Wednesday, June 11, 12:32 PM

Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel was first up in team drills at mandatory minicamp for the second straight day on Wednesday and is going up against the first-team defense, according to The Chronicle Telegram's Scott Petrak. Fantasy managers shouldn't read too much into the Browns QB reps during offseason workouts, as head coach Kevin Stefanski said that rookies Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders will probably require more reps as they get acclimated to the NFL game. The Browns are conducting an open competition at QB, but the expectation is that it will come down to either veteran Joe Flacco or Kenny Pickett. Gabriel, 24, stands at 5-foot-11, 205 pounds and could open the year as the No. 3 ahead of Sanders. He has plenty of experience playing for three different teams in college in addition to a strong arm and a good feel in the pocket. He's strictly a dynasty/keeper stash in 2025.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer's Alex Darus reveals that Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders' citation for driving 101 mph came less than two weeks after another speeding ticket that he got in the Cleveland area, and he failed to appear in court just hours before being ticketed for speeding this week. Sanders notable went from potentially being a top-five pick in this year's NFL draft to falling all the way to 144th overall in the fifth round to the Browns. The 23-year-old former Colorado star looked decisive and accurate during offseason workouts, but these off-the-field missteps won't go over well as he merely works to convince the Browns this year that he's working keeping around beyond his rookie season. It's unlikely to result in a suspension in 2025, but Sanders clearly has a lot of maturing to do both on and off the field.
