YoloinOhio Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 23 minutes ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: Welp, scratch the Browns as a landing spot for Kirk Cousins. Not that I think he'd go there, or that the Browns, owning 2 picks in the top 5, should back up the truck for him, but it was being talked of. I'm Captain Kirk, I'm "wherever this guy goest, I shall (NOT) go" I don’t think he will have that kind of influence . He’s just helping them with the draft.

Highly agree with you here. Never been a big Grigson fan at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not trying to be a dick I just don’t know if this related to the bills or Kirk cousins or something This board is a Bills one, obviously, but it has long been good at generating discussions about other goings-on around the league. If you're not interested, that's fine, but the board will always feature discussions about non-Bills-related NFL stories because of the people who have long populated the board.

cale Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 McCloughan is toxic. Brilliant evaluation mind. But drama follows wherever he goes. If they can keep him off the sauce in CLE he'll be a great addition to the FO.

They hired a guy that is well known for being an extremely excellent talent evaluator. Combining with what they already had on hand in that FO...yea the Browns are making great moves. Make no mistake, he did/does have alcohol issues...but according to most insiders when he was fired from the Skins it had zero to do with alcohol and everything to do with that idiot Allen grasping for control.

McCloughan wanted to extend Cousins two years ago to avoid just this situation, but Snyder and Bruce Allen waffled and the deal never got done. The Redskins possibly looked to have turned the corner, but alas Danny can't stay out of his own way. As pointed out in this thread, McCloughan to Cleveland is a good move on the Browns part. They have a ton of picks, and the FO that will know what to do with them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am actually just a little surprised that they've haven't seemed to have any trouble attracting so many big name front office people with Haslam's track record...
