We have 3 2nd round picks and couldnt land garrapolo? We could have "foisted" i mean sweetened the pot with Britt. Lols.....but stsly, this speaks to a major disconnect between staff and office. Not good. But what it also shows is hue is not on the kizer wagon no more. This has to mean Qb with the 1st pick next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SD_Tom Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Reports on ESPN said he really wanted Watson and Hooker. That worked out well too. Now I'm seeing reports that Gordon is gonna be reinstated, and they're likely trading him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unsympathetic Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 You're seeing reports that Gordon's rights will be traded. His actual reinstatement is far from a foregone conclusion.. "could be near" is not "is 100% actually near".. Gordon is just a couple years away from going full TO and lifting weights shirtless in his driveway while grunting a demand for a roster spot.

Yep. My guess is NE didn't want him to fail in this toxic dump of an organization. SF is a much better option with Lynch and Shanahan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that mean then that he is a Kunt? The problem with this team is that it has not had a decent QB who is capable of leading this team to wins. Ergo, by saying he has no interest in the Browns, he is telling us that he believes that he is a shitty, gutless QB. But that's OK....I was never very high on the guy either. He may be OK....but I think he will get a rude awakening having to play for the 49ers (who really, in my opinion have much less overall talent than the Browns do on their roster) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SF is a much better option with Lynch and Shanahan. Sorry, but I think that Kyle Shanahan is at best Hue Jackson lite. His reputation as being an OC and a QB guru is/was no better than Hue's. And what kind of shape has that offense been out there? As bad or worse than the Browns....and that has been WITH a semi-proven veteran QB. I don't know about Lynch. Clearly too soon to tell about his GM qualities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hue Jackson has been a coach before and we know what he's not capable of. Shanahan has potential ( See last year) but he's got some flaws too.

Gordon is going to get reinstated and manage to stay clean for the rest of his career, and end up in the PFHOF.

runyon27 Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 I could probably give the FO on a pass for not reaching out again on JG to initiate things, but I would have to believe if Pats had an offer in the works with SF that they didnt call back Cleveland or at least try to and say we are going to trade JG and this is the offer, if you want in you need to beat this offer. The fact we either weren't there to answer the phone or not willing to deal is a black mark on Sashi and team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stillmotion Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Just now, boo fagley said: Jimmy G just wanted to start for an NFL team. The Browns are better than the 9ers. Maybe NE thought now way with Hogan, Kizer and Kessler or the roster. Somebody is hell bent on Kizer and it might be Sashi. Perhaps because Kizer is SO young. I even had someone at work today say why the Shmuck would the browns get a project QB when they could of gotten watson? I didn't have an answer. A champion is a champion, and Kizer has strengths, but freaking Notre Dame benched him last year. Sick and tired of this Sheet QB mess. It's been going on twenty years.

If Jimmy came in then Kizer to the bench. I would have loved to see Jimmy on this team. Truth is Pettine liked Jimmy G and Derek Carr, yet we took Manziel.

I don't know if I see a Watson or Wentz. Rosen is iffy. I'd of rather had Cousins or Jimmy G. Maybe the 49ers realized that so that's why they made a deal.

We have proven time and again we can't pick QBs in the draft. Even for the best talent evaluators it's a gamble. The only way we might pull a starting QB out of the draft is if we use every pick we have on QB's. Blind squirrel theory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The QB musical chairs tells me all I need to know. If it's even remotely true- "The Process" is going to get seriously tweaked in the off season. I'd demote Sashi back to contract negotiation- only. He's so far in over his head it's just sad. We have draft picks out the wazoo- Haslam has to know the fans are out of patience, and playing a failing Kizer to go 0-16 isn't going to sit well. It could have been a trade deadline splash to show the long suffering fans we have at least a mild interest in winning a couple of games this year- but nope, just trust us with our boatload of 2018 draft picks. Sorry if I don't. Garropolo for a second? Darius for a 6th? Like that wouldn't even remotely improve the Browns THIS year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jiggins7919 Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Often times before a catastrophic blow up, there's a signature event that the owner just can't ignore. Look no further than failing to get Garoppolo and then not filing the trade paperwork before the deadline. It's over folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironic isn't it that our 2014 pick has infinitely more wins than any of them. What the hell bring him back for entertainment value alone and the occasional win for the fans. At least he could hit a wide open receiver long, unlike anyone we have now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
