Romeo Crennel is clearly confused
The Cleveland Browns will entertain offers for restricted quarterback Derek Anderson. Just ask head coach Romeo Crennel.
“If anybody is interested in him, we’ll just have to see how it goes,” Browns head coach Romeo Crennel said. “Sometimes people can make you an offer and you can say, ‘No, I think I’m going to stay with what I got.’ Sometimes they make you an offer and you say, ‘Oooohhh.”‘
“I’ll listen, but I don’t have to do anything,” Crennel said, according to the Plain Dealer. “We’re going to do what we think is best to improve the team. As we evaluate it over the next week, we’ll decide what that will be. To this point, nobody’s made an offer.”
You’ll listen, but don’t have to do anything? Uh, you’re not the general manager, Romeo. That title belongs to Phil Savage, so it might be wise to allow him to listen to offers and you do the coaching. The Browns go 10-6 and all of a sudden Romeo thinks he’s Ron Wolf.
Romeo is still one of the decision makers. If he tells Savage he wants to keep both, Savage is going to keep both. Either way, you’re reading too much into what he said. Quit hatin’.
I wasn’t trying to be malicious, Brian. But just for you, I’ll quit hatin’ anyway.
