The deal breaker was that the Bungles refused to take Jackson back.

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

There may be some truth to this but all Hue has to say is look the FO passed on Wentz, they passed on Watson, the didn't due what was necessary to acquire JG and these other teams benefit from trading with us while we passed on good QBs, time to find a QB. And you may think he hasn't given Kizer time to develop, I think he has been fair with that, in the end the player has to make the right decisions etc. The FO doesn;t believe in retaining veteran players who can help someone like Kizer of some of these other players develop. Who is modeling how to be a QB to Kizer? Kessler? Hogan? Thats not Hues fault, thats the FO fault. Sashi has final say on the roster not Hue, so the QB issue belongs squarely on Sashi.
-
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.

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.

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.

Barbara approves of our FO.

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

They need to make a statement ASAP that's for sure. I don't believe a good portion of this but it makes the Browns look really dumb.

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.Related: Browns -
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.

The FO has already drafted 4 WRs and 2 QBs and swung and missed, but they'll sudden'y strike gold on the next set?
I'm thinking they're more likely to strike pyrite instead......

Yes I saw this tweet wonder if its right, I think I would like that to be true more than we screwed it up even though I am not high on AJ personally as a long term option.

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.

Cognitive dissonance? Or are you pro-Sashi but not Hue?

I’ve given up on Hue. 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.
