Not sure what Dillon is doing, but the chess game seems to be on.  Does this suggest that Sanders has not foregone his sense of entitlement?  That will make some of you mad.

If I played for a team called the Browns and their jersey was brown, I sure as hell would not want to wear number two on it.  That would confirm what my wife has been calling me since our honeymoon. 

And heeeeere we go!!

How is this Panther related, you ask?  It is a bit like the Clausen Cam Newton issue over the same number.  Clausen was in a tough situation, I get it, but to say, "No, I am wearing #2.." and Cam says, "OK, I will wear #1 then."  Basically, I am the #1 QB and you are the backup--these QBs have huge egos. 

FWIW, Gabriel wore #8 at Oregon.   At the moment, there is no #8 in Cleveland.  This is a shot across the bow.

Honestly, if he's taking #2 just to mess with Shedeur and the team is letting him since he was picked first, then I just became a huge fan of this kid, would be awesome

I really think they were ordered to draft him.  They can say what they want, but there was no joy in Mudville when he was picked. 

Before this, the Browns were having a good draft.  SS had to know the reason he dropped--his poor interviews, feeling of entitlement, etc.  and when Gabriel trolls him, he acts as if the number was his--at least, that is the implication.  It was an aggressive move by Gabriel, but Sanders, under these circumstances, should not have taken the bait.

Sure looked that way. That draft room looked like a funeral when the pick was announced and they'd already taken a QB two rounds earlier. Did not seem like a decision made by the folks in that room. Said it during the draft.

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
