And you are contradicting yourself.  You claim that Maccarrons play last year makes him a hot commodity, but then you claim we con do no better than .500 with him as a starter.

If he played well enough to be a hpt commodity then why would we do no better than .500 with him starting?  If the Bengals can do just as good with McCarron as any other back up then why would other teams pay more for McCarron than any other back up?

No I am not contradicting myself. AJ got valuable experience and played fairly well. We went .500 with him in there. A QB with NFL game film that can go .500 and has potential to develop further is a hot commodity, especially with 2 more years at a small salary. He is not going to develop a whole lot more riding the bench for 2 seasons tho. If he were getting first team reps and starting he would improve at a quicker rate and give a team in need of a QB someone to believe in/build around. 

Maybe you should consider ALL factors in his value and not just his record

And once again never said bengals could do just as well with "any other" QB. There are QB's that could get similar results tho. Not all backups could do that tho
