It's still a terrible trade for just a 2nd rounder.  When Atlanta traded Matt Schaub to the Texans, he had only 2 career starts in three seasons.  Those were a loss to New Orleans in which he went 17/41 for 188 yards, 0 TD's, 2 Int's, and a QBR of 35.4 and a loss to New England where he went 18/34 for 298 yards, 3 TD's, 0 Int's, and a 112.1 QBR.  The guy had never won an NFL game, was a year removed from his last start, and netted 2 2nd round picks.  Also keep in mind that Schaub was only under contract for one season at that time, while McCarron is effectively controlled for 2 years. A second is well below market value.
