A.J McCarron...can he be a franchise qb?

Garrappolo- might not be traded because Tom is 40 years old(Hell I wouldn't be surprised if they trade him instead of Jimmy but that's a whole new discussion)
Cutler- I am not sure who would want him. He as been average throughout his whole career plus he isn't known to be the most charismatic QB in the NFL. I think he will be more in the backup QB market then starting.
AJ will have plenty of lookers and interest but I agree he won't be anything special.

Romo- Peyton was 36 with a bad neck. Your point? Romo is a fantastic QB and someone will roll the dice.
Jimmy G- I believe the Pats will want to keep him, but it's a shaky situation. Only one year on Jimmy's deal and Brady wants to keep playing. I'm sure Jimmy wants to play too.
Cutler- This guy gets knocked, but let's be real. Fitzpatrick, Osweiler, and RGIII were starters this year. Cutler will be an upgrade somewhere and will start.

I don't know about "plenty", but McCarron will have an interested team or two. Just depends on if those teams would rather go FA or draft a guy much younger than Mac with a longer (cheap) rookie contract.

With a late 1st round pick (top QBs will be gone) I guess I would see the Texans being interested. But I could also see Romo there. Jimmy G I'm sure would be preferred based on his NE connection. If those fall through, maybe they try Mac. The Browns are the only other obvious team I can think of, but they're loaded with picks and could take BPA at #1 and a QB at #12.

I could be wrong and he could
Be the next Brett Favre but I haven't seen that out of him just yet.  Likely more along the lines of a Matt Schaub (which isn't a bad thing)

Speaking of Schaub, would you trade mccarron for a 2nd in 2017 AND a 2nd in 2018?

I even think being the next Matt Schaub is a lofty goal. Schaubby was a damn good QB for several years.
