Why is Mike Holmgren Ripping the Browns?

-ESPN Former Cleveland Browns president Mike Holmgren blasted the team Thursday, questioning why it would trade second-year running back Trent Richardson to the Indianapolis Colts and saying he would quit if the same move happened while he was a head coach.

"How do you make your team better by trading your best player?'' Holmgren told Sports Radio 950 KJR in Seattle, according to The Plain Dealer of Cleveland. "He's the best offensive player. He's a valuable, valuable guy.''
Holmgren was the reason Richardson initially landed in Cleveland, as he traded up a spot in the 2012 NFL draft to take the former Alabama star with the No. 3 overall pick. Holmgren eventually was let go at the end of last season by new Browns owner Jimmy Haslam and CEO Joe Banner
Uhhh why did they trade your boy T.Rich? Maybe because he actually wasn't that good. Look you can get into the fact that Richardson is a beast and everything and huge but the fact is he averages like 3.4 yards per carry. Last time I checked that's not very good. And you can say that his team is awful but even good running on bad teams do better than 3.4 yards per carry. Your pick sucked plain and simple. You also drafted Weedon with a first round pick too so essentially you blew two first round picks in the same year. That's why the team go rid of you bro. That's why they traded your boy. How do you make your team better by trading your best players you ask? You make it better by getting rid of your crappy picks for more picks, so another guy can draft better players, that's how.
