The Cleveland Browns pulled the trigger Take Chedur Sanders After his historic slide in the NFL Draft.
However, some fans are skeptical of the team’s enthusiasm for players based on reaction of the Browns’ leadership after selection.
ESPN footage of Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski and general manager Andrew Berry showed light golf applause with blank faces in the team’s war room after the Sanders pick was announced.
Berry leaned forward half a brow.
The mistake of the quarterback in the NFL Draft is that it shaped the league landscape.

Many fans on social media have questioned how enthusiastic Brass is about hiring a real controversial prospect.
“They look excited. Has anyone put their hands on it?” One X user wrote in response to the footage.
Another user expressed concern about Sanders, who may be on a team whose leadership doesn’t value him.
“This is even more rude than not drafting him. These people don’t treat Chedur fairly,” the user wrote.

On the bold critics, Berry and Stephansky proposed that they gave a “shame response” and promoted conspiracy theories, including NFL conspiracy.
“This is a shameful reaction, and they decided to take part in this conspiracy and are intentionally messing up this child, but they are embarrassed to have been drafted,” the user wrote.
Berry and Stefasnki later explained to reporters at a press conference about Sanders’ choice. Berry suggested that drafting Sanders was “not necessarily a plan” after taking quarterback Dillon Gabriel in the previous round, and didn’t think Sanders would be available in the fifth round.
“Selecting two quarterbacks wasn’t necessarily a plan to go on the weekend, but as we’re talking, we know we believe in the best players, we believe in positional values.
“So we love adding competition to every position room. So, adding him to compete with the others already there and that was right.”
While discussing the strategies behind Sanders’ drafting, Berry said Browns officials were beginning to consider entering the third day of the draft.
“It was something that went into day three of the draft, where he was still on the board. I thought, ‘Well, depending on how far he goes, that’s what we’d be interested in potentially leaving him,” Berry said.

“We felt it was worth it because the name kept moving away from the board and seeing how we were positioned.”
Berry added that his interview experience with Sanders was “positive” amid in inadequate reports of interviews with multiple NFL teams.
Before Saturday, the relationship between the Browns and Sanders family was not all flattering compliments.

Chedur’s father, Colorado Football Coach And NFL Hall of Fame Deion Sanders suggested that a once-young quarterback should refuse to play for Cleveland in 2018.
“I love what the Browns went this offseason, but if it’s not the way young QBs go to Cleveland, they’ll pull Elimanning if possible,” Deion wrote in a Twitter post in March 2018.
However, Dion also challenged the notion that Chedur might not play for the Browns after rumors surfaced last season.
“Don’t worry about who will say that lies, try to misrepresent my son and stop being related.
