And all Kirk Cousins did was generate some buzz before being named the starter, committed a slew of turnovers, and sunk his own trade value.  We shall see, but I honestly think phasing out Dalton (for good or ill) is more likely than getting a good trade for McCarron.

Kirk Cousins did sink, but at one point he was thought of very highly throughout the league.  He ultimately played himself back down to planet earth, but I can't help but think that some of that might have been the talent around him.  McCarron hopefully won't see any regular season action but could play a great deal in the preseason and could, in fact, play himself in to a decent value on the trading block. 

I would be surprised if the Bengals would trade him, though, since they would finally have a backup that they believe in and could further develop.
