LondonBrown Posted October 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 I see your point but Sashi has produced a young roster with some really good players on defense and a good O line We have a boatload of picks to get our QB and offense sorted. The issues are crippling at the moment because it’s all on one side of the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSS Jimmy G wasnt gonna stay in New England past this year. They wanted to keep him but he wants to play. The Pats were just getting some value for him.

stillmotion Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Update via Rotoworld The Cincinnati Enquirer reports there was a "disconnect" between the Browns' front office and coaching staff regarding Bengals QB A.J. McCarron. Despite the disconnect, the Browns were ready to surrender second- and third-round picks for McCarron's services on Tuesday. The league office confirmed the deal was not confirmed because of a "paperwork issue." Truly unbelievable. The "disconnect" almost certainly stemmed from McCarron's ex-OC Hue Jackson overvaluing him in the eyes of the Browns' front office. Sashi Brown and Paul DePodesta are probably breathing a sigh of relief, while Jackson is likely fuming. The Browns' disastrous 1-23 record on Jackson's watch can hardly be laid at his feet, but it's seeming increasingly likely he won't be around to finish the (never-ending) rebuild.

LondonBrown Posted October 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 It’s now being reported it was the Bengals fault. The paperwork they filed was the one signed by only them and not both parties as is required. If you believe the FO is so busy high fiving a trade that they forget to call the NFL then I have London bridge to sell you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or trying to. Id fire him tonight. He’s done nothing to help Kizer (his pick) and his time management is beyond pathetic. He’s not helping develop these young players. Cognitive dissonance?

If the FO did agree to him offering the Bengals a 2 and a 3 then I have serious reservations about them going forward. I have a hard time believing this FO would offer that for someone that’s not thrown a pass in two years and is a RFA in 2018. It doesn’t make any sense to me and flies in the face of what they’ve done to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The User from Cleveland Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 That's so Browns. They try to do something bad and they can't even do that. Maybe if they tried to lose games on purpose, they might accidentally win them instead because that would be so Browns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoorta Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 6 hours ago, LondonBrown said: Andy Dalton blows and McCarron can’t beat him out. ^^^ This the discussion on ESPN said it best. The Bengals view Dalton as an an "average" QB at best. McCarron can't beat him out, and we're willing to toss more at the Bengals for McCarron than the 49ers did for Garropolo?

flyingfooldoug Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Yes the trade attempt with the Bungles was real. As well as Braylee Jackson slamming the FO on Twitter. She says you can't do anything without picking up a phone. True. And I can't help but wonder what all this did for Kizer's confidence levels. A huge disconnect between Stoshthepudpuller and Hue has been going on for some time now. Thank you Jimmy stupidhillbilly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jiggins7919 Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Here's the problem. It doesn't MATTER whose fault it was, it's just another example of how we screwed the donkey and we look absolutely ridiculous...again. I pretty much hate everything to do with our team right now. The thought of watching Kizer play more games makes me want to vomit, and what's worse is the impending feeling of doom due to the fact we're probably going to blow it all up again. I'm not saying it's what I want, but I feel it coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
