Than why did Buffalo trade him and sign McCarron?

 

Because you can't have enough options at QB, he was cheap, and we didn't have Allen or were positive we could draft a QB.

He signed for less by his own choice and the QB market is different now.   Fast forwarding to this year, the Browns could have signed AJM and kept their 3rd round pick. They instead traded for Tyrod and his contract.   Speaks volumes. 

 

Yes, it speaks volumes about how stupid Cleveland is.

Good question.  Don't know, just have thoughts (in no particular order)

1) Cap space move.  saved a bunch.

2) McCarron may be better "fit" for what Daboll wants to do offensively

3) McCarron possibly better mentor for reading D and making progressions in passing game - total speculation here

4) Avoid potential locker room drama if rookie gets starting nod and then struggles - may not have felt Taylor would accept benching gracefully

5) Gain helpful draft pick
