Browns laying smokescreen about Tebow?

Tony Rizzo, host of the The Big Show on WKNR (AM-850) in Cleveland said on his show today that the Browns don't have interest in Florida quarterback Tim Tebow.

Rizzo sighted team sources when he said that the team is simply laying a smokescreen. If so, this is a thick smokescreen being laid by president Mike Holmgren, especially considering Tebow is holding a private workout with the Browns. From Holmgren at Tebow's pro day:

"Clearly, he's a special young man," Holmgren told the Associated Press. "You can tell he's trying to make adjustments to his motion. That seems to be what people are fired up about, and he's working very hard to do that, and it showed today. I thought he had a pretty good workout."

"Those of us that know the position a little bit and watch the position and have coached the position, you saw it," Holmgren said. "You saw he's worked hard on changing some of his technique, and I root for him. He's a wonderful young man. I pull for guys like that, and he's going to make some team very happy."

Now, why a source would admit to feigning interest, I have no idea. Further, it seems pointless to fake interest about a player who likely won't be picked early in the first round. But unlike some radio chatterboxes, Rizzo often knows what he's talking about and does have very good sources.
