Browns coaches irate at Sashi and front office for lack of due diligence on Garoppolo

Browns coaches irate at Sashi and front office for lack of due diligence on Garoppolo. Front office left work at 5pm, the night before the trade deadline.

I got several emails last night that the coaching staff for Browns is HIGHLY upset at the front office. Coaches were in the building working, and the front office went home at 5 PM. While coaches continued to work the night before the trade deadline, Sashi Brown was unaware of the Jimmy G trade and was actually informed of it by an irate coaching staff who had lobbied to acquire him, over an hour after it happened.

Coaching staff feels that the front office is undercutting them by not acquiring the talent they need to win, and not putting in matching effort to do so. Like anything, there's three sides to the story (his, hers and the truth) but this was relayed to me last night.

Is anyone truly shocked by this? I mean they are the Browns... They aren't known to be very bright

 

[Hank Kingsley]

You snooze you lose.

I don't think Bill would trade JG there anyway, the Browns did fire his ass back in the day. Likely remembers that...

I actually think it is just Hue trying to make the narrative the FO is undermining him.

From what I heard, Browns were already out of the trade because Jimmy wouldn't have signed with the Browns and his agent made that clear to the Browns.

The Browns apparently think their odds of hitting on a QB are higher than trading a second round pick for Jimmy Garoppolo. And who can disagree based on their track record?

If they can't get him to sign a multi-year deal, they would just be throwing away that draft pick for possible results this year. Would hurt instead of help them rebuild.

One of the first things I was wondering about once the Jimmy G news broke. Seems shocking to me the Broncos and Browns didn’t muddy the pot on this guy as far as we know.

The Browns coaches are emailing you?

WORST FUCKING ORGANIZATION IN THE HISTORY OF ALL FUCKING SPORTS

Broncos are interesting. They must be sold on their current guy, though Siemian hasn't really impressed me much.

They phone me for advice, sometimes

The Browns are as bright as a burnt out lightbulb.

No the Browns didn't fire him. He went to Baltimore w/ Modell & then he got fired.

That's kind of the kicker though, Siemian isn't their guy, but what has Lynch shown to start over him?

technicality.

I think thats the key......Signing on in San Fran is gonna be a lot easier than Cleveland

No offense and all

Actually Pats and Browns seem to have a good relationship...I think the Browns took at least one player off BB's hands for him...Collins maybe...not sure of the LB.

There were talks some time ago about Jimmy G going to CLE, but I think CLE felt the price was too high, and talks died off, idk. Maybe they lowered their demands for SF...(doubtful). A likely very high 2nd rd pick for all of 3 or 4 games of tape is a pretty good haul.

I think the USC kid staying in school has the bottom feeders scampering for a trigger man early.

 

[YankeeRebel]

I can't understand why coach and GM are still in Cleveland.

3 Hires i never understood

Hue Jackson
Anthony Lynn
Vance Joseph

Based on their prior work as coordinators, never could grasp why they earned those gigs

 

[Jikkle]

I thought it was strange there wasn't a bidding war between SF and Cleveland for Jimmy G as I would've thought the Pats would've gotten at least a 2nd and change from him in that scenario.

But if BB was truly high on Jimmy G he might've been reluctant to trade him within the AFC and have potential problems in the future whereas in the NFC all you would really need to worry about is the Super Bowl for the most part.
