Doubt it.
They've ended up ruining the career of pretty much every quarterback that they've ever drafted highly. I think they go with the proven McCarron and roll with him, especially because I think it would also please their fans. They'd be pissed if they draft another QB high, ruin him, and set their franchise back however many years.
I think they actually may be happy that they botched the trade because now they can get AJ in the offseason and let him have a full offseason to learn the playbook and players/coaches, while throwing him into that dumpster fire midseason could have hurt AJ's confidence and development with the offense, which would have had their fans calling for them to draft a first rounder when, in reality, AJ had no chance of satisfying anyone.
I think the AJ loses his grievance and the Bengals put a second round tender on him, get it, and are able to improve the line.
Win-win
