When it comes to the Giants’ search for their next franchise quarterback, the here and now cannot be all there is.

Or else Dillon Gabriel, who most talent evaluators believe is too small to hit big at the next level, but no one can deny he has smarts, savvy and a sense of how to play the position, given his vast and diverse experiences (University of Central Florida, Oklahoma, Oregon) in college football.
