Hint of Snow Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Dalton for two #1's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky151 Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 If they want McCarron, it's to be their starter. Considering how many first rounders they've blown in recent years, they ought to offer more than a 3rd. Alex Smith went to KC for a high 2nd and 3rd so that would be the starting point. Or maybe McCarron plus #24 for #2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|High School Harry| Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 How about their third and their first? We could even throw in Marvin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|Harley| Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 And this is why you draft a qb every year. If someone is willing to overpay for AJ, make the trade and repeat the cycle. As for the Browns, you really need good comp if you believe AJ will help them. I could see their 2nd for AJ and our 6th.

VonBlade Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 We'll give you AJ for a first, Thomas and a player to be named later.I look forward to Hue being fired at the end of the season, coming back to the Bengals for a season, then off somewhere else. We could spend years trading away QBs to Hue coached teams for their first round pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|High School Harry| Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Hue is a fish. Wait him out and he'll come up with a better offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelWeston Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Doesnt make sense to create a need just to need to fill it. We would then need to draft a QB to replace him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thezerawkid Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 I have a tough time seeing us sending AJ across the division for much of anything...it'd have to be a serious offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnickyCat Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Doesnt make sense to create a need just to need to fill it. We would then need to draft a QB to replace him. Agree. Makes zero sense unless its a crazy good Palmer/Raiders type offer...& that isn't happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BengalBacker Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Ludwig has always been a Browns fan.I wouldn't trade McCarron to them for their 1st and 2nd round picks this year and next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd have to take that trade. ... we'd be picking #2, & 34, and #1 & #33 next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArizonaRising Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 I'm not the best future teller but honestly I think AJ will surpass Dalton in terms of playoff results if he stays in Cincy. I wouldn't trade him to the Browns unless it's for multiple 1st and 2nd rounders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A player like McCarron doesn't come around often and the fact we got him so deep in the draft makes it even sweeter. His value to me as a insurance policy is far more valuable than anything were going to get in the draft this season. If our starting QB goes down we got a guy just as good to come in and to me that is priceless. Look at all the teams around the league that one guy gets hurt and their season is over. At least for us we have two guys that have to get hurt before our season gets shut down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catfish Bob Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 I don't see how they could trade him. In just one 4th quarter he has shown more hope and promise than Dalton has in four post season games and AJ only had a few games under his belt as opposed to Dalton who had season upon season to prepare for his playoff flops.

Le Tigre Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 If they bump it up to their 2nd rounder, you have to take it. Not really. You have a (now) proven quality backup QB essentially free for two more years. Draft picks--for us especially 2nd Rounders--are such a crapshoot.

happyrid Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 I would take their 2nd rounder (which is basically a 1st rounder at #32 overall). McCarron is going to be a free agent after the 2017 season and I'm sure he'll want to go somewhere and try to start at that point.So all we're really giving up is two years worth of having a pretty good backup QB. Two years of a good (and cheap) backup QB definitely has value, but so does 4 cheap years of a 1st round talent we could grab at #32. To add some context to the conversation, I just googled up a 2-round mock draft and here are some of the players currently going in the 27-40 range:LB Jaylon SmithLB Darron LeeS Vonn BellWR Josh DocstsonCB Kendall FullerDT Jarran ReedI'd trade 4 years of any of those guys for 2 years of McCarron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparky151 Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 We should definitely be willing to trade McCarron if the price is right. Question is whether we should ask for more from the Browns than we would from some other team like the Texans. I'd say yes to the second question as Mike Brown has a record of fleecing Hue. From Hue's point of view, he's looking to move Manziel to get rid of the headache and recoup something. Maybe he can get a 3rd from the Cowboys for Johnny Football. Cleveland is set at backup QB with journeymen McCown and Davis. They need a starter and apparently AJ is the one Hue covets. That would let the Browns use their top pick on Bosa, Tunsil, Hargreaves or whoever. I'm not convinced AJ would be a success in Cleveland (nobody else has been). I don't see him as a franchise QB. But his value is high now that he's been in high level games without wilting. So it's probably time to sell if we get a good offer. There isn't a QB controversy in Cincinnati with Dalton firmly entrenched as the starter when he's healthy. We can find a decent backup QB without too much trouble. The usual suspects are available in free agency again this year. Names like McCoy, Henne, etc. So I'd trade AJ for a good offer, at least a high 2nd and 3rd which is what KC gave SF for Alex Smith when they wanted to get rid of him. After wasting first round picks on Quinn, Weeden, and Manziel, Cleveland might be happy to take a young QB with some upside and use their firsts at other positions.

Hooky Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 I don't see how they could trade him. In just one 4th quarter he has shown more hope and promise than Dalton has in four post season games and AJ only had a few games under his belt as opposed to Dalton who had season upon season to prepare for his playoff flops.You're forgetting the common denominator of the last 7 playoff losses. The real reason the drought has lived on. We'll never know what Dalton could've done this year. The regular season was different this year and the playoffs might have been. I don't care who the QB is as long as he can win some playoff games even with Marvin as coach since he isn't going anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After wasting first round picks on Quinn, Weeden, and Manziel, Cleveland might be happy to take a young QB with some upside and use their firsts at other positions.If they did trade AJ, I would like them to sign a legitimate backup instead of drafting a QB. Unless they get another steal like AJ in the 5th or later round. And I wouldn't want a floater QB vet like McCoy or Wheeden or Henne. I'd want somebody more established like Hasselbeck. Not Hasselbeck, but somebody that has real experience. Even if they have to spend a little money. On second thought, maybe Henne.But I wouldn't trade AJ for less than a first round pick. MB can afford to hold out for a quitter caliber deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
