Jimmy reacts to Cleveland Browns' weekend moves: The Donovan Live Postgame Show

'The Voice of the Browns,' Jim Donovan, weighs in on the recent trades made by the Browns and more with Dave DeNatale on the Donovan Live Postgame Show.

I've been absolutely chomping at the bit to sit down and talk with 'The Voice of the Browns,' Jim Donovan, since this past weekend's flurry of trades.

Monday night, I got my chance on the Donovan Live Postgame Show.

When the two of us signed off last Wednesday, Jimmy mentioned there may be legitimate reasons for Browns fans to be concerned because the team was not able to pull the trigger on any player agreements or trades to that point. They had come up short for everyone from Alex Smith and Michael Bennett, to Vontae Davis. Would that be a trend we'd see carry over to free agency?

Not so much.

On Friday, the Browns made deals for QB Tyrod Taylor, WR Jarvis Landry, and DB Damarious Randall. That was followed by a Saturday trade that shipped DL Danny Shelton to New England.

So here's what I wanted to know from Jimmy in our conversation:

  • His overall reaction to what the Browns did (I'll give you the spoiler on this one, he approves)
  • Did the Browns overpay by giving Buffalo a 3rd round pick for Tyrod Taylor?
  • Was Jimmy surprised that the Browns parted ways with QB DeShone Kizer in the trade for Randall?
  • Will Randall play CB or S for the Browns?
  • How might these moves impact what the Browns will do in free agency starting on Wednesday? And how will they affect Joe Thomas' decision to retire or come back?
  • Should Browns fans look at former executive VP Sashi Brown in a different light considering all of the assets he stocked the team with before departing?
  • We also took questions from fans wondering how the trades might affect the Browns' draft plans.

That's what's on the table on Monday's Donovan Live Postgame Show. Dig in.
