McCarron Unrestricted Free Agent
-
McCarron unrestricted ..........Interesting........ wonder if Fester will push for him....
Obviously....I would not doubt it at all.
But.....in my opinion it is now a real quandary for the Browns....and for Fester. The article states that McCarron wants to play....wants to be a starter. It does NOT say that he wants to serve as a bridge QB.
So...it seems to me that the only way McCarron signs here is if the Browns essentially say to him: you have a chance to be our QB going forward into the forseeable future. But fooyuck....is that what the Browns want?
If the Browns take a QB #1 overall...I mean HE is the long term projected future for the Browns.....not some backup signed as a FA.
He could tell the Browns to go piss up a rope.
What I see potentially happening is a rift between Dorsey and Jackson. Dorsey saying "we are going for a QB #1 to be our future" ; Jackson saying "I am deep in the arms of McCarron and want to have his children...so let's get him."
THAT is the dilemma for the Browns....and for McCarron. He has a coach that wants to butt snuffle him.....in Jackson....but that team may have a GM that wants his QBOTF to come from the draft.
Money is not the issue. The politics would be the issue.

If we keep a 1-31 coach, to then let him decide to sign a backup QB as quaterback of the future and pass on a QB in a draft both deep and with good quality in the position, then I've seen it all.
A 1-31 coach should not have the final word on this matter. Dorsey should listen to him -a good coach-GM chemistry is the path for success- but he should never submit his opinion to Hue's.
-
Mcarron has to know hes going to have to compete where ever he goes. Cleveland, giants, denver, and jets will all be looking to land one of the top QBs in the draft. Arizona, Minnesota, and Jacksonville could be in play but them and Denver probably have best chance to land Cousins.

Well....yes, they do have to talk about this.....and I guess they have to try to be on the same page on it....but Jesus, Mary, and Joseph...you are absolutley right about having a 1-31 coach trying to dictate things.

Hue just got hard for AJ. Expect a deal to be done immediately unless you believe that Ghoolie's theory of Dorsey being a yes-man and coffee fetcher to be incorrect.

Thus this will prove if he is a coffee fetcher or not.

This is good news for us. I'm sure he'll want to come here and play under Hue. He is my 3rd option right now and that pretty much assures us a bridge QB. I would push hard for Cousins, then Bridgewater. If we can't land those guys (which I doubt we will) then A.J. is a good option. He knows Hue system, ran it pretty well when given the opportunity, and more importantly he has the hottest wife in the NFL.

Bridgewater really is RG4. Or 5 or whatever. But we won't be using exactly Jackson's system will be using Todd Haley's.

Bridgewater in no way shape or form is RG3. He's a pocket passer with average athleticism. He's a smart an accurate player that does his damage in the short and intermediate game. He's more Andy Dalton then RG3

I agree, I can't see a team that tells him: "If you sign with us, you are the hand's-down starter. This franchise is staking it's future on a QB who couldn't sniff the starter's job with Andy Dalton in front of him". I mean, I'm not opposed to the idea of him being the bridge guy, I don't think he's horrible, but he has to be realistic about where he is on the totem pole of NFL QBs at this moment.

Yep...he's been a backup for however many years. He comes here, he's competing with the #1 overall pick and Kizer for the starting job come September.

LOL, does the sun come up in the morning? Count on it.
Hue just got hard for AJ. Expect a deal to be done immediately unless you believe that Ghoolie's theory of Dorsey being a yes-man and coffee fetcher to be incorrect.
It can't be done immediately. Technically, he's still under contract with the Bengals. We can "officially" start talking to him and his agent March 12th. No free agent can ink a deal until after 4PM March 14th.
I have to wonder with the kind of deal Garoppolo got, what the asking price for AJ is going to be. Gip already nailed it. At 27 years old, you really can't look at McCarron as a bridge starter. It does put the Browns between a rock and a hard place on a qb decision. AJ is probably going to want at least a 4 year deal, and I doubt he'd be very happy if Dorsey tells him we're drafting a QB high this year. So the question becomes, as it did with Jimmy G. Do you think he's better than any of the 2018 qbs in the draft? Hell of a risk. Sheeze Louise, if we bring McCarron in and he flops, and Mayfield or one of the other QBs turns into a Wentz, it's welcome to having egg on your face- again.

Cousins, McCarron, Bridgewater, Rosen, Darnold, Mayfield, Allen, Rudolph, Jackson.... on and on and on the list of QBs goes...
And the first time one of these guys have a bad start (ala Hogan) you will bash and trash and cry to high heaven that we have to take the next QB #1 overall in the 2019 Draft...

Your opinion is invalid because you were born with an extra chromosome.

But I really do hope we get either Cousins or McCarron just so we can put to rest the QB at #1 talk and go with what makes sense. Maybe you'll concede to picking a backup QB at #4.
I'm confident that Hogan will beat them out if given a fair chance anyways.

Cousins might put to rest the QB at 1 talk. McCarron would definitely guarantee a QB at 1 overall. Hogan will be looking for work elsewhere and that what will you do?
Honest question...will you stop being a fan when your boyfriend Hogan is given his release and signs elsewhere?

Acquiring McCarron would be a step backwards for the Browns. He's not a significant upgrade over what is currently in the Browns QB room - he wasn't even good enough to beat out Andy Dalton, the poster child for QB mediocrity. He's no bridge QB - he doesn't have enough in-game experience to draw upon if asked to mentor a rookie.
Settling for McCarron is exactly what the Browns shouldn't do. Spend the cash and get the best QB available - Kirk Cousins. Pay what it takes. The money is only gathering dust.
