Tyrod's friend Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 This, gentlemen, is what cheering for the Oakland Athletics about 15 years ago used to feel like. 1
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 Anybody photoshop AJ in a Bills uniform yet?
Threedollabills Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 McCarron's Alabama highlight reel looks as good as any of the guys in this draft.

Cripple Creek Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 47 minutes ago, vincec said: The reason to be unhappy is that McCarron doesn’t really represent a strong plan B if the new rookie QB isn’t ready to start. He has never been a starter and has some real question marks as to whether he ever could be a successful one. I am fine with dumping Taylor, but he was a .500 starter. That was a legitimate short term plan B. You could be right. I choose to trust the professionals.

I like the part where he threw for 50 yards in the national championship game. Wasn't Ingram the RB back then? It was against my Longhorns IIRC

0017 Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 (edited) With 6.5 million in incentives and playing time. Wow!! Great deal for us!! Edited March 15, 2018 by Dr. Football 2

26CornerBlitz Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 Pete Prisco grades the Bills pickup of free agent QB AJ McCarron (1:48)
MiltonWaddams Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 Excellent deal. Best one for a qb this year by a longshot
Bag of Milk Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 That's a salary given to average backup Qb's and certainly McCarron has the potential to offer much more.
ProcessYaDigg Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 I'm really happy that we didn't go out and throw money at one of the other overpaid free agent QBs. Very smart move on our part. Also love that we're addressing needs on defense in FA. Now let's build the offense and put up some dang points on the scoreboard!!! GO BILLS!!!!
Coastie Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 Hard to argue the value of this contract, it is far better than I expected and there is upside with this signing. 1
0017 Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 (edited) I’m starting to believe Beane is a Jedi master! Edited March 15, 2018 by Dr. Football 1
DrDawkinstein Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 Very happy about this. He was my first choice of all these middle-pack guys ever since he won his arbitration. And top it off with that deal! I figured we might land him around $7M/yr. But $5M?!? Well worth the shot. It's the Tyrod 2015 situation all over again. Another shot for a guy to prove it. Will be great competition to our blue-chip rookie.

Wait what was Jimbo's first year record? And is it safe for me to assume that if as someone else pointed out the league changed the schedule to 18 games that it's safe to assume that under AJ we go 1-7 and then 1-7 under the new rookie? I'm sooo confused here. 1 hour ago, KRT88 said: I have to laugh. The guy has barely played, spent 4 seasons holding a chip board and he gonna make $10 million! What a great freakin job being an NFL backup! The guy is gonna make more than Shady and he’s been the entire offense for several years! McCoy should demand a raise. He doesn't in fact make more than Shady and different positions get different pay scales to boot. 1
Malazan Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 I'm glad the OP had the courage to post this thread. Some of us wanted to discuss this topic, but no one else would make a thread on it. Cheers to you, OP. 3
