We were offered a great deal for him and instead of taking it we decided to demand even more and it fell through. If we take the original offer we don't have to sit on pins and needles hoping it gets done before the deadline, and that's even assuming the Browns didn't just come to their senses and realize trading more than a 2nd rounder for McCarron was absolutely insane and then just let the clock run out.
Not taking the initial offer for McCarron and asking for more as the clock ticked away was a gamble and it didn't pay off for us. We didn't want the bird in the hand, we elected for the 2 in bush and the damn things flew away. Oh well!
We had a deal for a 2nd and 3rd, we sent in the trade to league office, Browns did not. They did things perfectly and the Browns botched it, there is nothing to go around and around with. Your position is complete and total hindsight and is not a realistic way of viewing negotiations.
