Re: AJ McCarron ... should we?
Anything would be an upgrade over Chase Daniels (although I have a theory that having him as your No. 2 is motivation for the offensive line not to let anything happen to Drew Brees)...
In fact, I'm still curious why we let Luke McCown out the door and not just heal up; but McCarron would be an interesting get into Payton's development... |

He’s been sitting behind someone for a couple of years. He’s going to go somewhere that gives him an immediate chance to start.

Re: AJ McCarron ... should we?
Maybe. Talk is the Browns. But why go to one of the teams that most likely will take a QB in the first round? I'd like to see him with either the Broncos or the Cardinals. That makes those teams instant division contenders if AJ plays like he did in that playoff game against the Steelers in the playoffs two years ago...

Re: AJ McCarron ... should we?
All the teams except one have signed their "bridge" qb. Buffalo would be the only team he could start right now. There is really a chance he signs with a team like the Saints. N.O., NE and Pittsburgh all have aging QB's that should retire within the next two years. If he would sign something like a 4 yr deal with the first two being cheap and escalating the last two after Drew's retirement I could see something being done.

He's going to go to the Browns. They tried to trade for him last season and they have his coach there.
