Why'd The Browns Take Two QBs?

Deshawn has taken his last snap in Clev and Flacco is older than Demetris Knight, so you have Picket, Gabriel, and Sanders 

Seriously they still have no trade capital. Every team passed on Sanders multiple times and he’s still a better bet than Gabriel who is at best a career back up. There are much better targets if you need a QB. I don’t think anyone is going to go dumpster-diving into the Browns QB room if they need a QB. If they do manage to trade one they would probably get a worse pick then what they used to get them.
I think ownership called the Sanders pick because the football people already made their choice for a QB.

Taking 2 back-up level QBs in the same draft was a very Browns thing to do.
