0017 Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Pretty interesting we ended up with McCarron for nothing and a high 3rd round from the browns, amazing job by Beane and company. I am wondering why Cleveland didn’t push harder for McCarron seeing that they we’re so high on him a couple months ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Source? And the Browns are really, really stupid and we are paying AJ (unless we signed him for free which would be an amazing deal!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 This has been posted before. They had a different GM back then 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Wagon Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 The trade was agreed to, the Browns botched it by not sending the fax in time. It's been covered extensively. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rumor here in Cincinnati is that they agreed to it but didn’t get the trade in before the deadline passed. Remember, the Bengals don’t have a GM.

The one to change both the culture and the fortunes of the Buffalo Bills. Generation after generation we have waited. At times hope seemed lost. After decades...the Chosen One has arrived.

Doc Brown Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 There were rumors that Hue Jackson and some of his assistants thought the GM at the time purposely botched the trade. Talk about a dysfunctional franchise. They've got a solid GM in there now though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been aggressive in free agency. Only time well tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We over payed players to come here (Mario, Clay). Plus they still have alot of picks in the first 2 rounds. A 3rd for Tyrod really isn't that bad when it instantly makes your team better. Not saying Tyrod is great by any means, just that it makes the Browns better 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really think Tyrod could be had for less than a 4th, especially if they waited until closer to the deadline where money kicked in for Tyrod.

BADOLBILZ Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 (edited) TT is proven.........he improves your running game, your pass game if you have deep threats(which they do) and he doesn't turn the ball over......... and Hue can't survive another awful year...........not having to change coaching staffs/schemes with all they have invested in young talent during their tank jobs is of ENORMOUS importance. McCarron is a mostly unknown guy with modest arm talent...........he is a much greater risk for Hue's coaching mortality.
