That's what I don't understand because everyone is acting like this will break the Browns season when they're dog shit anyways.

With knowing that they won't be doing anything this year anyways, so McCarron was for the future, is it possible that he gets traded in the offseason?

He'll be 28 in September, but not a lot of wear-and-tear on him, and Hue is familiar with him, so will Hue pull the trigger over drafting a franchise QB who could be a bust?

Around The Horn and everywhere is bashing the Browns for botching this trade, so it's good to know that we didn't screw it up.

If he doesn't earn the free agency status through his arbitration hearing (why the hell don't we know that?  Does anyone think that shit would float in pitt?  NE?  Dallas?) then I can't see why it would change anything for the Browns.  If anything, he wouldn't have taken the beating behind that very suspect line.

They could use all of next year to evaluate him for next to no financial stake before opting to sign him long term.  I hope it happens, but I am not holding my breath.  They will likely fall in love with some young QB that looks great in short and a t-shirt at the combine and bet their farm (again) on an unproven.
