Don't think a trade is going to happen during the season, but some of you people crack me up with pointing out how Dalton getting sacked 7 times proves how much they need McCarron, or how if Dalton gets hurt, they'd need McCarron to win the SB.
Here's the truth. If Dalton gets hurt, the season is over. Dalton has one of the quickest releases in football and is great pre-snap. If you put McCarron behind that OL against the Jets, he'd have either had 15 sacks, or would have been hurt and left the game. I think people forget how absolutely horrible McCarron's pocket awareness was, how long he held onto the ball, and how often/quickly he got happy feet despite being slow. Oh, and how poorly he secures the ball when getting sacked, which Dalton is great at.
Last year he was sacked 15 times in just under 5 games. Behind the same OL that Dalton was sacked 20 times behind in just over 12 games. McCarron would be murdered behind this OL, so if Dalton goes down, the fat lady has sung.
