Then McCarron has to learn their offense in a week at most and try to seamlessly guide them to the playoffs. This might be tough for some to imagine, but what if he can't do that? Then what? They just gave up a top pick for a short term rental? It'd be dumb.
Heck, I think that's partly why teams won't pick up Kaepernick right now. He'd have to learn an offense on the fly. Tennessee caught so much grief for not signing Kaep, but they signed Weeden who was familiar with their offense. At this point in the season it's best to roll with what you have or someone familiar with your system...unless you can get a monster talent like Brett Favre or Tony Romo.
Agreed. The high value of McCarron seems to only exist in the minds of Bengals fans and certain GMs with over a quarter of a century of experience on their resume.
