The reason its so frustrating seeing the Bengals decline trade offers for McCarron (they reported did decline a second round pick at some point in the off season) is because most fans recognize he is a very average Quarterback. He has decent touch and mobility in the pocket but not a single thing he does is elite or possibly even above average.
The coaches and ownership seem content to just ride out his contract, give him a tendered offer (if he's even a RFA. If he's an UFA, then we're shit out of luck in terms of compensation for him) and ultimately let him walk for very little gain.
All for the sake of "What if Dalton gets hurt?" as if the answer to that question isn't "The season is over" regardless of who's sitting behind him.
Maybe a team will have an injury and get desperate like Sam Bradford and the Vikings last year.
But the more time goes by, the more I realize we're just waiting for something that, for no real reason at all, our ownership simply refuses to do, despite the value it would bring to this team.
