A. J. McCarron Free Agency MERGED THREADS

Strange you're complaining about him, yet you know nothing about him. (02-16-2018, 03:42 PM)Cleatwood Wrote: Signing McCarron would be the worst decision about the QB this team has ever made. Blake is absolutely better than AJ. I'd rather have Bradford, Teddy B, Keenum, or a rookie over AJ. Another one with a vast knowledge of the quarterback position!

If McCarron comes out and lights it up, I'll have no problem saying I was wrong. It just seems highly unlikely. Also, when you're using college stats to back up your claim, you've already lost. College stats mean absolutely nothing in the NFL.
Really amazed how he is dismissed on these boards! Smart, accurate passer would work well in the system. Call it a Bama bias, that seems to be the "in" thing to say. But I never begged to get Mcelroy here, and he was a "winner".

Now you're gonna come back with "Well Brady was drafted in the 6th and Rodgers was a backup!" My college stats were directed to the "won with running, and defense " comment. I was not planning to come back with anything regarding draft position. However, since you brought it up...... Cousins went in the fourth. We show less advertisements to registered users.

Your claims are based on hypotheticals because no one knows how good he can actually be.

I'd have zero qualms about bringing him in for a workout. I just don't expect much to come from it. I'll be happily wrong all day long if he turns out to be an affordable upgrade.

He couldn't beat out Dalton and the worst HC in the NFL loves him. Bama bias.
I have not seen enough of McCarron in the NFL to warrant a knowledgeable or informed position on the guy. However, the Browns tried to trade for him last year, and they'll likely be the ones to give him a shot before us. The only reason the Bengals wanted him as a RFA, before losing the grievance, was to deal him and get something in return. He'll now be an UFA after winning the grievance case, and the Bungles will get squat. My gut, yes, the uninformed one, tells me he will be next year's Mike Glennon.

Its not so much saying he is better than Blake, I have no idea. Just watching him at Bama , he has alot more talent than he seems to be getting credit for.

If you want to take that angle then answer is that Dalton was too superior for it to even be a competition. He's a backup , spot starter type.
LOL. Even scrubs like McCarron have spacecoast level fanboys? In what world does a scrub like AJ even get considered as an upgrade over any starter in the league? WOW.
