Oh okay I didn't know we were talking about college.  Cause people still talk about Bryce Young's 5'10 height in here like it's a conspiracy, posting pictures of him standing next to so-and-so person (Mina Kimes, Drew Brees, etc.) and acting like he's secretly 5'3 or something.  I don't think anyone ever took his 6'0 194 Alabama listing seriously.  Colleges routinely overstate their players' height (see link), but for some reason with Bryce Young, it's a huge deal what his college listed him as.  And not only that...but Bryce is the one lying, not Alabama.

Yeah it's really nothing much.  Happens a lot.  Just clearly happened with Caleb too.

He's 5'10" but he plays like he's 5'5". If he balls out no one will care about his height.

True although, it only would have cost us Iky, Bryce and a pick we traded for Bryce and a few other later picks. We did nothing with the picks we saved by not trading for Watson, lol. Maybe we would have felt forced to trade Burns to the Rams due to the cap and then we might have been better off, SMH.

How did we avoid that Watson disaster only to basically waste every opportunity we were given by the Browns? 

That is sort of the story of us in general. We got one of the best hauls for a RB in recent memory(maybe the best in the next decade) but proceeded to basically squander those picks.

We spent a top 10 pick on McCaffrey and gave him a huge (early) contract extension.

He was in the same situation as Burns - a star player who didn't fancy playing for this franchise anymore. We got pennies on the dollar for both.

CMC never wanted to leave. He's said it interviews.

For a RB, it was actually a very nice haul. There was definitely no equivalent of the Rams offer on the table for CMC. 

We got about market value(pick wise). Then we immediately took those picks and flushed them down the toilet.

What he says publicly doesn’t reflect the reality. 

It was tough on everyone involved with the Rhule/Fitterer disasters. I’d run too!

I mean, the fact that basically his whole family was immediately thrilled he left said a lot. I kind of doubt he was truly upset. Maybe just a temporary pride hit.

Eh that's hardly settled. His parents were thrilled to have him on the west coast where they have nothing but familial roots. He himself seems more than content. I think it's pretty safe to say even if he didn't directly want to leave immediately he was not willing to continue risking his health and career longevity to wasted seasons here. You guys are going to have to accept that one day.

We got market value because they only looked at it as the numbers standpoint from the draft chart, but half those picks were never going to pan out, and the best pick was at the end of the 2nd round 

Never should have traded CMC for anything less than a 1st, he’s the best weapon in football.  Mid to late round draft picks isn’t going to replace that, we needed 1 impact player in return if we were going to trade him at all (which we shouldn’t have).
