Sure wish Lombardi was still the GM of the Browns. He said he would definitely trade for Jimmy given the recent Watson news.

All the analysts were saying Deebo wanted out of SF a few months ago also.

Yea the Browns have B+ weapons on offense and an A- to B Defense. They were 5th in the year in pass defense and top 12 overall. From what I hear they may have gotten better. They have a win now team. If you roll into the season with Jacoby let's smoke the Brisket, you're telling the team and fans "Welp we tried with Watson. This probably won't work but oh well." If you roll with Jimmy then you still have a shot to stay competitive those first 11 games.

Plus, it might be for more than 11 games. Watson is probably not going to be ready week 12. With Jimmy, they don't have to rush him back.

Watson has to play 6 games this season. NFL did him a favor. No chance he misses game 12

Can Jimmy even stay healthy for 11 games?
My guess is the Browns will wait until the Niners release him. It's only 11 days so why would they trade anything for him. If they were going to make a trade it seems like they would have done it as soon as Watson's sentence was announced so they could get him in as soon as possible. Of course this is the Browns who don't have the best record of making smart decisions.
If Jimmy is cut at the latest date, it would make sense for him to go to a team that runs a form of Kyle's offense or the Pats. He can step right in with little problem. Don't follow the Pats, so don't know which team that would be.

Makes me wonder if his agent already worked something out in the background while Jimmy is waiting for his release. I would think his agent could. Gonna signed with a team as soon as he's released.

Agreed he already knows where he is going if not traded.
Just curious, was the two 2nd rounders for Jimmy offer months ago legit or just a rumour?

That would be tampering ?

Absolutely. And happens many times a year.

Lynch says so, never confirmed.
