They should have been willing to shop McCarron for a 2nd rounder, nothing more. If Garropolo only fetches a 2nd rounder, McCarron should not fetch more than that. The fact the Browns became desperate enough to cave to those outrageous terms is a different topic, but this deal probably would have gotten done before the deadline if Brown wasn't asking for so much in return. What this also indicates to me is that Cleveland seems to be willing to move on from Kizer already. And if McCarron does become RFA vs UFA, I'd slap a 2nd round tender on him and let the Browns take him that way.
This makes absolutely no sense. They got a deal done for more than what you said and your mad at them? They got a deal done and turned their paperwork in without issue before the deadline, this is 100% on the Browns. If the Bengals had time to turn their paperwork in so did the Browns.
Trying to spin this as anything different is simply looking for a reason to be mad.
