All we hear about is the Carson deal and pissing off Vance last year. Reggie Nelson trade went well. Ever since the akili non trade I think he has been ok.

Would I want the Bengals to trade McCarron for draft picks? Absolutely.
But the Bengals have McCarron for 2 more years and can put a 1st round tenure on him as a RFA down the line. However, 2017 is going to be worse for the QB market. Drew Brees, Kirk Cousins, Tyrod Taylor, and Andrew Luck are the 3 best QBs. Then you got Geno Smith, Mike Glennon, Matt McGloin, Brian Hoyer, Mark Sanchez, etc.

AJM has a higher value because he has low salary for 2 more years. It actually would be perfect for the Broncos because they can load up on defense.
It would just cost them draft picks.

Broncos are currently looking at Kaepernick. Throw in Bradford too since the Eagles signed Chase Daniels to $20+ million, 3 year deal

Kaepernick looked like a super star after playing half a season. What I'm saying is - who knows how McCarron will play over a full season or 2-3 seasons?

Broncos just lost Osweiler knowing that they have Super Bowl caliber team if they have a QB. That puts them in a bind they might be willing to overpay to break free of. It's not just Denver though I'm sure there are other teams that have interest in a potential starting QB. Why? Why would we trade a valuable backup? Fluke plays happen and you gotta be prepared. It wasn't the QB who kept the Bengals from winning that playoff game, just saying.

Kaep looked like a star because people played man coverage and allowed him lanes to run. Once they contained rushed him and played zone he struggled.

If there was any time to trade McCarron right now would be it. Trade him to Denver, and get compensated well. Yeah, we should trade him while he has interest. He played good last season and this would be good for our team as a whole and McCarron so he can get a shot at starting. He is not going to start over Dalton here.

With the amount of $$ QBs are making now, a team would save a ton since McCarron is on a tiny rookie contract for two more years. A team like the Broncos would have to give more than just the #31 pick now to get McCarron. The Bengals realize how desperate they are to get a QB.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive. Sorry for Party Rocking!

No doubt, after seeing what some pretty average QB's are getting it would be a great time to see what we can get for our backup. Not saying that a good backup QB is worthless either, just seems like this would help us more now than at any other time with the ridiculousness going on.

Denver has a similarly built team. Strong defense and run game. So both have similar qb needs. Accurate passers who are smart. Kaep isn't accurate, lacks touch, and struggles with multiple reads.

Kubiak's offense values athletic QB's. http://broncoswire.usatoday.com/2016/02/27/colin-kaepernick-a-potential-fit-in-denver/ "Imagine Kaepernick running one of Kubiak’s famous bootleg plays. He is a real dual threat, capable of making tough throws as well as outrunning nearly every defender on the field." One of the reasons why the Broncos stuck with Osweiler last year is that Peyton wasn't capable of running those boots effectively. McCarron has some positive traits, but athleticism isn't one of them. He's a very slow pocket QB. He also has a much weaker arm than Kaep and lacks the postseason success. Kaep is a much better fit for all of these reasons, and that's probably why it looks like Kaep is the guy they'll be targeting.
