McCarron's Scar

If you want to use the NFL ranking? I think it's roughly on par with Mason Rudolph, not quite "The Savior" Josh Rosen. A 5.7 generally is good enough to land a QB in the late second round. 

 

And didnt answer question. But good try

They mentioned this incident in the lead up to one of Alabama's national championship games. They mentioned that because of his time in the hospital, visiting kids in the hospital was important to AJ McCarron. They went on to tell the story of McCarron befriending a young girl who was battling cancer on a trip that the Crimson Tide team took to a children's hospital shortly before the title game. She gave AJ a wristband that her family had had made with the saying "just trust" on it. He told the girl that he was going to wear the wristband during the game. True to his word, you could see that he had it on during the game. I've always respected and thought highly of AJ McCarron since seeing that story.

He is a BU QB. Ceiling is Matt Moore (and that is fine). 

 

He couldnt even every beat out Andy Dalton (lol) and had absolutely zero market in UFA 

And Brady had to wait until the sixth round.  The odds say that you are right.  But you never know.  It would be great if he turned out to be the best free agent signing of 2018 wouldn't it.

I'm sold, lets try out all the bag boys at Wegmans one of them is bound to be the next Kurt Warner.

I tried that once they asked me not to come back.

Sure Jamarcus Russell

matt Flynn

Drew Brees

Bortles

Blaine Gabbert

Alex Smith

 

want me to keep going

 

So as i said happens all over the league

So Rivers is better than Brees and Kap was better than Alex Smith.

Even better Flutie was better than Brees

Was listening to the J Murphy show yesterday & D Jones brought up a point that needs to be thought about when getting a QB which i believe should be used in evaluating either a rookie or veteran QB & that is their past history of winning .

 

Also Daniel Jeremia said that comp % of a college QB doesn't compute to being a great NFL QB because of the system they were in in college & the better players & defensive schemes in the NFL .

 

With all of that if the comp % is higher in the NFL (AJ's is in the 64% range) the thoughts on the QB are higher because it did translate to the NFL, given all of that thought that is why i think McCaron will be a great QB for the Bills !

 

He has won at every level & one of the things is maybe that scar as a kid (along with his very modest upbringing) made him more mentally tough !

 

In the game against the Steelers that he played in the Bengals were down & it looked like all was lost but he battled against the odds & if not for the fumble & penalties incurred  by others on the team they would have won because of his mental toughness when all seemed lost so it was no fault of his .

 

Plus i seem to remember some games in his college career which he did the same thing that's the guy i want leading the team when they are down late in the game , just as we all know when Brady is in the game it ain't over till it's over .

 

 i think AJ is that guy for us maybe his past which he said he came from nothing & has had to fight for all he has gotten with a good bit of success is the best attribute he has of his intangibles !

 

If that isn't the perfect blue collar fit for the Bills i don't know what is !!

 

And yes i do have a man crush & will go on record to say he will become the Bills franchise guy !! Call me crazy but that's what i think !!

 

Go Bills !!

I’m glad he has an opportunity to compete for the starting job. Let’s see what he can do with it.
