I didn’t say it was you, it was some try hard carpet bagger who wanted his article published. And the fan base will eat it up because it fits their narrative.


But what I can tell you is based on recent history, and the way New England has dealt in the past, no one in their right mind would believe they would take a 2nd rounder over a top 5 draft pick and actually believe that to be the smarter move for their organization

Would you take a 1 dollar bill over 8 quarters because it’s more convenient?


Wait, what? Do people here actually think it was better for us as a team moving him to SF, because we didn't want to play him? Ya... that's retarded, and no possible way is that fucking true. I could believe that since they liked Jimmy so much, they took less to get him to a team they thought might have a chance at success, but there's no way they didn't want him in Cleveland, because they didn't want to play him, that's idiotic.

I think it could be true that they were trying to hook jimmy up, although that’s super uncharacteristic of New England because they’re a very shrewd organization


I think it was passive aggression by B.B., but to answer your original question, the quote I was referring to insinuated that he was traded to SF so he couldn’t walk in Cleveland and sign with buffalo/New York/ dolphins.



I cringed super hard reading it. That dude should go work for a slander Magazine, or bleacher report

the only thing I could think of was did BB hold a grudge against cleveland when he left the Browns organization in the '90s? idk. I was too young for those days and am not a big football history guy.

I've also heard (long shot but) supposedly BB likes Shanahan because he was sympathetic towards BB in the spygate situation. Mike Shanahan: "Everybody was trying to steal signals back in the day"

I ain’t even mad, like I said, I’d rather have Kizer and the pick. I might be eatin my words in a year, but a 4th overall for a guy who’s started 6 games? Yeh no thank you. I’d rather roll the dice with a top rookie qb

Vouch. No one could have possibly guessed he'd come out of the gate like that, and there's no guarantee he'll continue with that momentum into next season. He also was injured in only a couple of games, which is another factor to consider when offering a top pick vs an unknown. We'll see what happens, but I'm going to shit a brick if SF comes out and puts together a 12+ win season with Jimmy just backpacking that fucking squad lol. All those people who retired are going to be lining up to come play for SF again with Jimmy.
