A 2nd and 3rd rounder from CLE?! No words. Except that
#Bengals fans must be crushed right now. -
A 2nd and a 3rd for McCarron would have been Retarded
-
The NFL did us a favor, honestly
-
I for once am actually glad we screwed up. I am not a Mccarron fan. Is he better than what we have now? Probably but not a FQB in my mind. The real travesty is that we bombed on getting Jimmy G and then punted with Mccarron. Honestly to me this means Hue 100% believes that Kizer is perma toast.
It is further beyond belief to me that we "accidentally" missed the deadline reporting this to the NFL. Call me a tin foil hat but I suspect it comes out Jimmy stepped in and nixed it as word has it he is furious with Hue for some of his comments.
All in all just another humiliating day for Browns as an org.
Relative to the QB's Hue wanted. Sure he wanted some that were turds, he also wanted Watson , Goff (year 2 looking just fine), Stated Wentz was the best pro day he has seen in his career. I think perhaps you have your internet gun aimed at the wrong person as i relates to our lack of a viable QB.
-
This stinks of Hue doing his mate Marvin another favour like he did with the Carson Palmer trade. 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.
-
The quarterback situation just by itself certainly makes the FO seem like a bunch of morons. I realize the sunshine boys won't admit it but...
They've pissed away two veterans with NFL experience and fumbled at least one trade for Jimmy Garoppolo who knows what the inside scoop is with AJ McCarron? I can give them a little bit of a pass on the draft because, hey, who knows Wentz and Watson might have sucked if they played here but...

I heard Hue ran out of time outs, and the clock ran out before we could swing this deal.
That ought to build up Kizer’s confidence.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports the Browns believed they completed their acquisition of Bengals QB A.J. McCarron before Tuesday's deadline, but that the league would not allow it to go through.
Schefter reports the Browns notified the NFL of the deal "moments too late," and that the league would not budge. ESPN Clevelad's Tony Grossi went as far as to report that the Browns were "celebrating" McCarron's acquisition and "forgot to call in the deal before the deadline." That seems a bit hard to believe, though we really want to. The Cincinnati Enquirer reports the Browns were ready to part with second- and third-round picks. The Browns have lost control of their quarterback narrative, letting their rivals and media paint them as hapless in their pursuit of an answer under center. -
This is such a Browns thing to have happened. Of source, we ran out of time lol. Also, a second rounder for McCarron is way too much. 49ers just got Jimmy G for a second and we're using our second on McCarron.
-
Jesus Christ this FO has made lots of trades since they came here and all of a sudden they’ve forgotten they need to call the NFL?
How anyone can believe such horse Sheet is beyond me.
-
It wasn't just a 2, it was a 2 and a 3. That's too much.. I'm glad they didn't get him.
They'll have one additional athletic DB/LB next season because of it.

My thoughts
Hue struck the deal with his friend Marvin and the Bengals
The front office said no way
Hue goes directly to Jimmy
Jimmy says ok and tries to overrule the FO but it’s too late

We've got Poetic Linus regarding Hogan.....and London Linus regarding the FO.

Somebody needs to lose their job over this. We are the laughing stock of ALL professional sports, not just the NFL!

Then again keep in mind that you'd have to be pretty stupid to give away a franchise quarterback when your starter is as old as Tom Brady or you seem to have questions about your starter in Andy Dalton.

1) Actually, I think LondonBrown's scenario sounds more correct. Problem is, if Kelvin Benjamin [who has a Pro Bowl in his history] is only worth a 3 and a 7, AJ is not in the galaxy of a 2 and a 3. So, our FO is correct yet again.. because this decision would have been made based on assets given vs asset received.. and thus if anyone should lose their job it's Hue.
2) I couldn't be more tired of the calls for bloodlust / lynching. Firing people haphazardly does NOT do anything other than make the atmosphere worse.
