Are there more guys out there sure but at the same time if a team believes that he is there guy they will still look to trade for him. I see him getting plenty of interest this season.
The point is, between the FA class, the couple guys on the trading block, and the impending draft class, there's really not going to be a ton of openings left, which means the market for McCarron (again assuming he gets RFA status) won't likely be all that hot. The Bengals are going to tender him at least a 2nd, and whoever signs him will still need to offer him a big contract. Other guys could be had for just the pick, or just the contract, so having to spend both for a guy who isn't proven probably isn't the most appealing of options.
