Dillon Gabriel, QB, Oklahoma

Hawaii boy is giving me some Stetson Bennet vibes. He's more athletic though and can scramble very well. Effortless deep ball. Lefty has some mojo.

Stetson vibes? He's an alcoholic too?

In that he's not very tall, 5'11, been playing forever - is a 5th year senior (?), and just wins.

Depending on what happens with Darnold and Brandon Allen in free agency, Niners may need another backup. Gabriel would be a good day 2 0or day 3 pickup for now.

I always thought that it's a good idea to draft a QB in the late round to compete for that 3rd string job..

I already called out Dillon more than a year ago :) He's definitely on my draft radar for our 49ers :)
