Indianapolis-on 5 feet and 11 and 202 pounds, Dillon Gabriel It may not look like a franchisely striker. But after setting the NCAA record for total touchdowne and throwing for the second oldest passage in the history of the division and, he is convinced that it can be successful at the next level.
“I challenge everything to just watch the cassette,” Gabriel said in the NFL Combine. “And you will see evolution from 2019 so far, the growth that I have done not only physically but also mentally. Even when I get the movement, you will see how much it has been polished and how detail it was.
“That won’t change. I’m eager to continue learning and growing. But I’m convinced of my tape.”
Last season, Russell Wilson,, Bryce Young and Kyler Murray They were the only initial returnees in the NFL below 6 feet high. Other QBs on the shorter side that had success in the league include Drew Brees, Baker Mayfield and Brock Purdy.
But smaller QB -I always have to prove themselves. Therefore, unlike the best attackers in this year’s draft like Sherdeur Sanders and DepartmentGabriel will participate in the QB drill at Lucas Oil Stadium on Saturday.
Gabriel said his depth of experience was to play the attacker the separator. The initial striker since his first year at Mililani High School in Hawaii. He then started 63 games in six years in college, with stands Central Florida,, Oklahoma and Oregon.
The 24-year-old finalist Heisman Trophy emphasizes his leadership ability, willingness to learn and his winning ways as a characteristic that act in his favor. Gabriel is like a starter 46-17.
“I think I learned how I got older that I was built for that position,” Gabriel said. “Growing up I played him, so that’s something I know well. I’m the winner. I won all three places, I did it in big games and everything in between.
“And then I’m a student. I know I won’t know that everything goes into the door in NFL. I have a bunch of knowledge, but there is still a bunch for me. I am eager to learn and I know there is a lot of room for growth.”
In his last year of college, Gabriel led Ducks to the 13-1 record, finishing 73% of his passages to 3,857 meters, with 30 Touchdown and six interceptions.
“(He is) baler,” Oregon receiver Traehon Holden he said about Gabriel. “One of the best attackers I played with. He enters the locker room and everyone just floats towards him. He connects with everyone. As I said, a baler. Someone who will do it every time he can.”
Gabriel compared to colleagues left back blow Tua Tagovailoaother Hawaiian origin. Together with Tagovailo, Gabriel said he was studying left -handeds like Kellen Moore and Michael Vick who grew up. Currently in NFL there are two left initial strikers: Tagovailo and Falcons‘ Michael Penix Jr.
“There are very few of us, which is fine,” Gabriel said. “That makes us different. But I think there are more than that, there are different play styles.
Holden said, even though Dillon is leftist, he throws the ball.
“When the ball is in the air, it turns a different way; instead of coming to you, it goes the opposite,” Holden said. “We had a monarch machine (robotic QB) … We switched that machine and made it with his left hand. I just caught that it helped a lot.
Gabriel is projected as choosing a day 2 or 3 days. Said he had interviews with Pets and Dolphins Combined this week. As for the appropriate team, he said he was looking for a great reconciliation with players, coaches and ownership.
