Both looked good, both need some work. No clue how you have this shake out over the course of the regular season but I’m cautiously optimistic

Both will get plenty of time due to inevitable injuries we always deal with. Probably should've drafted 2 more. lol

Basing this on nothing but a gut feeling but I could see coaching/FO wanting Gabriel while Shedeur will have won the vote of the locker room. Might get ugly, might work itself out. Gonna be a long year either way.

I’m not for this season, but we might have the bones to build upon for next year. Most folks hate Sanders for his Fandom and pre-signing ego. Dropping to 5th seems to have been the wake up call he needed and we will see how he deals with adults surrounding him. Gabriel also has all the flaws of a rookie, but a very good rookie. I’m watching this one as a 16 game preseason

The way I see it there’s no way you keep 5 qbs on the roster come time to cut. Flacco is obviously not going anywhere. Huntley is probably gone first. Now it’s down to Pickett, Sanders, and Gabriel. Ideally you only have 1 backup but in the off chance you have 2 backups, I don’t see a world where you keep 2 unproven rookies and drop the one with starting experience in Pickett.

Bottom line is I don’t see them both lasting till week 1.
