NFL.com "AJ McCarron a better trade target than Garoppolo?"

Quote:"I wouldn't feel good about making a major commitment to any of these quarterbacks," one executive explained. "If I had to choose one, I would go after McCarron. Ideally, you get him for a late second- or early third-round pick. Then, if it doesn't work out, you draft a QB in 2018."

Another executive said he would target McCarron over Garoppolo if his team couldn't land a proven quarterback.

The obvious small sample-size caveats apply here. That said, the results still come as a surprise considering Garoppolo's substantial edge in draft pedigree (second round vs. fifth round) and limited game film.

One point in McCarron's favor? Because he spent the majority of his rookie season on the non-football injury (NFI) list, he won't reach unrestricted free agency for two more years. Garoppolo's rookie contract, on the other hand, expires after next season.

Interesting. Late 2nd or early 3rd appears to be McCarron's value. I'd prefer to have an early 3rd and 4th vs a late 2nd in this draft. Too many team needs and the meat of this draft seems to be in the 2nd through top of 4th rounds. Maybe my idea of McCarron to Chicago for their 3rd and both 4ths would be on point, after all, if the Bengals tossed in a some of their 5th and 6th round picks.

Fueled by satanism, violence, and sodomy, dinosaurs had little chance to survive as a species.
