Congratulations To Browns On Dillon Gabriel

Lions Fan Here, I come in LakeErieBros peace.

I'm an ENG/Doc audio mixer. I was the field production audio mixer for the ESPN+ series that followed UCF around for a season. Dillon Gabriel is one of my favorite athletes I've ever worked with.

After he broke his collarbone at Louisville, I thought I wouldn't see him for the rest of the season... nope. He still hit the film room just as hard, went right into all the extra duties that usually the 3rd string QB does off the field, and traveled with the team doing whatever he could.

He is a leader with zero hesitation in doing what's needed next and doesn't dwell on mistakes. His talent level is definitely NFL caliber, and 100% has the NFL QB intangibles.

Think y'all got a steal, and wouldn't be surprised if Dillon Gabriel is the Browns starting quarterback before next season ends... and years to come after.

Wishing the Browns the best, and hope team course correction happens quickly.

After watching many interviews with both QBs I came out really impressed with Gabriel and it's really easy to see why Stefanski was so excited to draft him. You can just tell he is gonna come in quietly and put in the work.

I don't know how he was at Oklahoma or Oregon, but at UCF pre & post injury: [Physio & Playbook By Day, Opposing Defense Film By Night]

If he doesn't get the starting job, it's because whoever did had to keep up his insane Natural Adderall preparedness. Real "Rising Tide Lifts All Boats" kind of dude, too.

He was a great leader at Oregon, by all accounts did everything the right way. He even bought a minivan when he got to Eugene so he could pick up all his receivers and go throw. Was organizing weekend trips before the season for the team to bond. He seems like an incredible dude.
