Tough call but no thanks, not giving up another pick plus he'll be taking snaps away from WR Goodwin who I think will benefit from Sanders throughout the season

Gabriel is a better overall WR than Goodwin. He's still fast as hell, even though Goodwin is faster, but he absolutely blows Goodwin away with the ball in his hands. Just imagine KS giving coordinators fits when Gabriel and Deebo are both on the field in 21 personnel in short yardage situations. They'd have zero clue what might be coming.

True, take away that 5th and I'm down, I like Gabriel but like Goodwin too, not against it but if it doesn't happen I'd be fine too..

Gabriel is not worth what he's making on that 4 year deal. I'd pass.

Turbo, as he became known around the league, added another element to the Falcons offense that took it to the next level. His eye-popping 4.27 speed is as impressive as it sounds, but it's the elite quickness in his cuts that make you wonder how this guy was ever released from any team, let alone the Browns.

It all started with a 47-yard dime from Matt Ryan that hit Gabriel in the end zone for the touchdown. It was Gabriel's first touchdown and catch of over twenty yards on the season. But it would not be long before these kind of plays became a regular occurrence. Following that week 7 performance, Gabriel was never targeted less than three times in a game, caught for 404 yards and tallied five more touchdowns to his total.

Remember those two touchdowns he scored on bubble screens versus the Arizona Cardinals? Or the time he broke Malcolm Butler's ankles for the entire world to see on national television.</quote>

I want.

I want to see what that is. Right now his cap number is $6,500,000. It would have to be pretty low to make me interested.

With Sanders now in the locker room, and three young receivers all showing promise, and on favorable contracts, why take on Gabriel and his salary? The combined total of Taylor, Hurd, and Pettis is only $3,300,000.
