    I'll start the rumor here: AJ McCarron?

    A Buffalo friend of mine were talking about auto paint finish problems, and when done, we chatted about this and that about the Bills. He mentioned CIN's back-up AJ McCarron.

    CIN recently signed UB ex-QB Licata, so I searched and found this:

    Two playoff contenders reportedly tried to claim Zach Mettenberger. The Giants and the Bengals were also interested in the tall quarterback

    http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/tw...-mettenberger/

    McCarron did fair in filling in after Dalton's freak injury late in the season. He was PO'd with his slot in the draft. Here's a scouting report:

    http://www.nfl.com/combine/profiles/...ron?id=2543497


    Is he for sale? Will a franchise that showered Fitz and Orton with dollars from above be tempted again?

    Buzz off. This is a fan site. A place where folks offer conjecture. Discussion.

    How about posting about football things and keep your infantile personal attacks confined to your double-wide community?

    Stuff your personal attacks beneath your chronic knob shining, and ponder whether a McCarron is a plus or a minus.

    I thought you might be able to infer from my post what I think of the idea of bringing in a middling QB like McCarron.

    Here's your post - verbatim.

    "Lordy you must be bored, go chug a Metamucil and take your afternoon nap."

    Eh - you think you can fling snot and there will be no objection? Your thoughts amount to self-stroking and the dissing of posters and then attempting to ask those you attack to wipe your ass off so you can feel good about yourself.

    The idea of my post - again - was to spark discussion about McCarron. I can understand folks saying no issue, folks saying it was a dumb post, but you chose to to make a personal slam.

    Stop weaseling. A simple "sorry for the personal attack" would suffice.

    I would take McCarron in a second, I like the kid. Not nearly enough to shower him with money (still too unproven) but I'd certainly be willing to trade for him while he's still cheap.

    Re: I'll start the rumor here: AJ McCarron?

    I just don't see a place for him here unless you want to carry 4 qb's so it's not worth trading anything unless they want McCoy.

    I don't mind McCarron any, he's part of the huge maybe subset of QB's, but I don't see the Bills cutting Taylor, Manuel or Jones loose.

    I honestly think McCarron beats out Mettenberger for a spot, I don't think Mettenberger is any good. For that matter, I think Licata has a reasonable chance to beat out Mettenberger too.

    I don't love AJ mccarron. Bills are dedicated to a different qb set. So mccarron if he comes in needs an entirely new offense for him.

    Let this gm and coach have their way so they can leave sooner than later

    You may as we'll be trading football cards here.

    The Bills won't do anything else at QB this year...they just won't. Period. What you see now is what the Bills will go into the season with at the position...that is unless one or more gets put on IR at some point.

    Something could happen later in the summer when cuts are made. This roster is not set in stone in May.

    Are you kidding. There is no way Whaley gets rid of his two backup qb pet projects. He is the only one left who actually thinks EJ can play qb in this league.

    Agree 100%. But there is one thing that makes me smile through all this. Geno Smith is the current Jets starting QB. ROFL.

    Mike Brown isn't going to trade McCarron.

    Agreed. Who would offer a 7th? Not clear to me AJ would get picked up if he was released. He's terrible.

    He may be terrible but he is a upgrade from E.J.
