Chris Easterling joined Dan Menningen and Spencer German filling in for Baskin and Phelps and shared his takeaways from the Browns' preseason win over the Patriots. He talked about Dillon Gabriel's performance and whether or not he's made a case to be QB3, what he thinks Gabriel's trade value would be, as well as why he thinks Shedeur Sanders wasn't named the starter despite how well he performed in his preseason starts. Chris also talked about which surprise players he thinks could be cut from the 53-man roster.
