The rumors are SF and CLE both wanted him, but he wanted to pick a QB at either place. Cleveland said "of course, we do every year" and SF said "But... you're supposed to be the fixer."

I think Hue just got scared that he wouldn't be able to find a team willing let him have as much control as he wanted. He got that with the Browns, for better or worse.

I think he's going to find it's worse when you don't have a decent scouting department.

Agreed. I think he will have a rough time there and Haslam unfortunately doesn't have the patience required. He could end up being our coach in the end anyway.
