for playing in Cleveland. Also, when asked, says Barkley not ruled out for #1.
He's having his pre-draft presser.
The rest seems to be the usual non-committal fluff.
But anyone who has been following along knows that Josh A is the QB hand size leader, Rosen not far behind, Darnold and Mayfield trailing.

#Browns Dorsey cited hand size as a key criteria for a QB playing in Cleveland

2. Dorsey is holding his cards so close that he has not even shared his draft strategy with Browns ownership
And it leads to the fumble problems with Darnold. #DollHandsDarnold

Article on the two QB angle.
Highly doubt they would do it at #1 and #4 but apparently they have given the concept some thought.

Dear Dorsey, please draft Barkley, so I don't have to worry about our front office making the mistake of a lifetime.
Incidentally, did no one hear the Cards' GM yesterday? He said this is the time for misinformation, and he did not expect the next 20 minutes of his press conference to be any different. Does anyone actually think Dorsey is being truthful with the media?

Same hand size as Aaron Rodgers.
Bottom line: the article is bullshit
Well played Sir.
Joey, I think you are dead on... I also think Barkley is gone at 1 the Giants trade out of 2.
Nope. QB #1. Dorsey's not stupid.
Dear Dorsey, ignore Jon. Please draft Allen or darnold. We will take the qb who doesn’t care about football. Thanks in advance.
There are ways around the hand size issue even in cold weather. Like under-inflating the footballs, for example.
Because he then said winning, accuracy and arm strength were what he was looking for which apart from arm strength, pretty much eliminates Allen.

The hand size comments come up around the 12:00 mark and I think they are worth noting.
There are other comments earlier in the conference that focus on winning as a bottom line.
Certainly don't see him as ruling out Darnold (or Mayfield) but it is notable that, when asked "What is unique about Cleveland?", hand size and November/December football is what he came up with (and he does goes on for a bit.)
