Browns wanted McCarron and were close

[WycheKid]

I for one don't like this cozy incestuous stuff with the Bengals and Hue. If Josh McDaniels was coaching for the Jets you think ol' Bill would ever sign off on trading him a (potentially) valuable player? I know a lot of you think McCarron is middling at best, but even if he authored one or two victories against the Bengals as a Brown, it wouldn't have been worth it. This is what mediocre teams do though. They are "casual" about things that could come back to bite them in the rear. Great teams keep their heel constantly planted on divisional rivals necks. They don't deal players to each other over a leisurely brunch.
