00:00but here's a little story from tony rizzo who covers uh the browns for a long time in cleveland
00:05and i've known him g since 1992 uh the the cleveland brown signed kind of under the radar
00:12bailey zappy remember bailey zappy new england so they signed him to the practice squad but it
00:18turns out that when they're running scout team offense shader sanders is not allowed to touch
00:23a football so right now joe flack goes to starter that's not going to last all season obviously
00:29right then you've got six foot six dylan gabriel under six foot their first first round draft pick
00:34this past year and then we all thought because they traded kenny pickett that shader would be
00:39the emergency quarterback or number three and in practice at least get some reps running the scout
00:44team maybe makes sense but according to rizzo in cleveland shader sanders isn't even on the field
00:51for anything he's a bystander watching practice and i have to happen to love that because for
01:00everyone out there that was yelling and screaming about how the browns were disrespecting shader and
01:05the nfl disrespected shader if a dude can play you find a way to play him period stop so the fact that he
01:13started the season off as the third quarterback and now we're finding out he's fourth behind bailey
01:20zappy in addition to dylan gabriel and joe flacco tells you all you need to know about whether or
01:26not that kid could ever be a starting quarterback in the nfl the answer is no sir so why do they keep
01:33him because they drafted him so you can't cut a first round draft pick because then it looks like
01:38you don't know what the hell you have it was a fifth round draft pick i mean you can't cut a fifth
01:41round draft pick all the time you can cut him that doesn't make sense at this point he's a hostage
01:47you should cut him someone else will make him the third quarterback the reason they're not going to
01:51cut him is because of what you just said they're not going to cut him because in the highly unlikable
01:57situation where he gets cut and gets immediately picked up and is on an nfl roster and whatever team
02:04picks him up their guy gets hurt and they go to shader which again is you know you smoke more weed like
02:10it ain't happening right the reality is that cleveland would then have to answer to their fans they're good
02:16fans about how'd you mess that one up why'd you draft him at all if you never had any plans for
02:22him to play now cleveland's answer would be we didn't realize how bad he was but as soon as we did
02:28we josh rosendom we cut bait because we're well aware dude can't play but it's interesting one week
02:35in that they went out of their way to get somebody else to run the scout team offense at least according
02:41to it like i'm not there you're not yeah but that's a dude has covered the browns for a very very long
02:46time it says something
