"writeup": "Cleveland's quarterback battle is technically open, with June reporting that Sanders closed the gap on Deshaun Watson after Watson entered the spring as the clear favorite, and a starter should be named early in camp. The rookie-year data argues for tempering any excitement about him winning it. Sanders held the ball 3.24 seconds on average, longest among all qualified passers, and was pressured on 39.3 percent of dropbacks, also the most in the league, and those two numbers are related in the direction you'd guess. The results were a 68.1 passer rating, last among qualifiers, a CPOE in the 7th percentile, and an average throw 2.7 yards short of the sticks. His 11.9 points per game overstates things too, since a 34.5-point week 14 props it up and his other starts averaged 8.6. Add a Browns offense carrying an 18.4 average implied total, 31st in the league, and the profile offers little beyond name recognition. Around pick 227 (QB30 in half-PPR) the market is paying for the chance he starts, an outcome the consensus projection values at roughly 109 points. Deep 2QB benches can justify that at the price, and in 1QB formats there's no reason to get involved.",
