I definitely understand where you're coming from insofar as your view of the importance of a backup QB, I can't see the Dallas scenario from last year being overly relevant to our season this year. If Andy had accrued the injury history of Tony Romo at this point in his career, I'd be screaming to keep McCarron. But in 2016/17, I just don't see the need being as great as a couple of round 2/3 picks in the future... but that's just my take on the thing. I can certainly see a point to be made for keeping a McCarron around too
Yeah Dalton has been durable but in the nfl you never know what can happen. I would rather have a QB backing up Dalton that can actually step in know our offense and play at a good enough level that the rest of the talent can carry the team if need be. Not saying McCarron cant make plays cause he can and will get better with more experience.
McCarron has proven he can step in and play if needed. When your comparing to a cardelle jones who is probly a 3rd string QB for the bills its not a good deal for us. if Dalton lost any time we would be in trouble I think. More draft picks are good... But even now we have quiet a few comps coming in 2017 and probly not enough roster room for all of them their rookie year either.
