Why the Browns should cut Mychal Kendricks, roster bubble players and previewing the Lions game

The Akron Beacon Journal/Ohio.com podcast

On this week's Akron Beacon Journal and Ohio.com podcast, Nate Ulrich and I talk the latest Cleveland Browns news. We start this week's podcast looking back on the latest episode of Hard Knocks on HBO. The most newsworthy part of this week's show was the dynamic between offensive coordinator Todd Haley and top wide receiver Jarvis Landry. Among other things, it showed how Haley should get looked at as a potential NFL head coach again in the future. Next, we previewed Thursday night's preseason finale. Even though most Browns starters will be off, the game is worth watching for guards Kevin Zeitler and Austin Corbett. First overall pick Baker Mayfield will also get plenty of playing time, as will receiver Antonio Callaway. One player who won't be playing is linebacker Mychal Kendricks, who was charged with insider trading. Nate thinks that Kendricks should be let go, despite just being signed this offseason. We close out this week's show going over some players who are squarely on the roster bubble. That includes Hard Knocks favorites Nate Orchard and Devon Cajuste. Will either make the team? Nate has some thoughts on both, as well as other roster items to keep in mind.
