We are going from one of the top 32 QBs in the league - even if he was well into the 20s on that list - to a guy who is not an NFL starter. You may well be right. I have not seen enough of McCarron to have a strong view. I doubt either Tyrod or McCarron are still starting for either team by week 7.

I disagree that they will be a better team but I will wait until it plays out before I get my laughs in. I think your just in love with the draft picks they have so I can forgive you. Going from winless to 500 is a leap of faith in my opinion. I'll take the guys that can strip a team for rescource and still make the playoffs over the guys that dump all these high picks into thier team and not win a single game every day 24/7. Those picks they have don't fool me. Our elite QB stable has a combined 5 starts in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2 years that will look like a no-brainer. The Browns are better than us now everywhere but the secondary and the backfield. If they draft Barkley that gap closes as well. They have talent. They just happen to be the Browns so... There bks are better other then McCoy we got a bunch of trash at least they have Hyde and Duke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt either Tyrod or McCarron are still starting for either team by week 7. I don’t know about that. It will largely depend on which QBs those teams draft and how patient they are with them. But it won’t be Taylor or McCarron’s play keeping them on the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I beg to differ McCarron doesn't have to be great to be better then Tyrod. Although Tyrod is in a much better situation in Cleveland with all those weapons now .

Again, we are going from a marginal starter at QB to a guy who shouldn’t be starting in the NFL. 2 hours ago, Teddy KGB said: Led ? He didn’t lead anything. He led as much as Jordan Mills did. 2,799 yards and 14 tds ? ?????. Browns are a joke, as is Tyrod. I always took exception to posts about Taylor being a leader as there was never any evidence offered to back that up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t imagine how you do - other than wishful thinking. If other NFL teams thought he had a chance to be anything then one would’ve been happy to pay him large. Instead he signed a 2 year deal at $5M per season with a team in desperate need at QB. 6 minutes ago, /dev/null said: The 2001 Patriots called and wanted to let you know sometimes the guy who never should have been a starter turns out okay.

He was a back up before coming here. Why are/were you open on Taylor but completely shut the door on McCaron? especially when their situations are basically the same....even down to the late rounds they were drafted in.

Brady isn't the only nobody throw away draft pick project QB to make it as an NFL starter: Kirk Cousins was a 4th round afterthought when the Redskins mortgaged their future for RGIII. RGIII is out of the league and Cousins was the hottest QB Free Agent in years Nick Foles was a 3rd rounder that had been traded and cut and contemplated retirement before accepting a backup job. He is now the reigning Super Bowl MVP Russell Wilson was a 3rd round project QB that has since won a Super Bowl Dak Prescott was a 4th round project QB and is considered one of the up and coming talents Case Keenum was an undrafted nobody 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he’s a Bill? If he was just named starter of the Dolphins we’d all be laughing at them. Thats not to say that I don’t understand the signing. The Bills missed on the other QBs via FA and trade and it was imperative that they have somebody besides Peterman on the roster. He was pretty much all that was left. Fine. But let’s not pretend it’s something more than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never saw Taylor as more than a marginal starter who could be a short term bridge QB. If he didn’t have an NFL caliber arm, he wouldn’t be in the NFL. To argue if his arm strength prohibits him to be a higher level starter, yeah that can be argued. Back up QB’s are a revolving door but yet McCarron has stuck around. I felt the same about Taylor. He’s got deficiencies in his game as well that prevents him from being better....just like McCaron. But McCarons deficiency is just way to much to overcome its seems because I guess arm strength is the most important trait in a QB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
