Metze Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Andy Dalton is coming off his worst non-rookie season with a 59.9 completion percentage, 3,320 passing yards, 25 touchdowns and 6.69 yards per pass attempt. His contract reached the point where it's feasible for the Bengals to move on from their starting quarterback if they're interested in doing so. Dalton's release saves the Bengals $13.9 million against the salary cap. But he's too valuable as a trade chip to let him loose and test the open market. Marvin Lewis and Co. may be more comfortable moving forward with AJ McCarron as a starter after re-signing the 27-year-old quarterback. If so, teams will start calling about Dalton's availability. The Jets desperately need a calming presence behind center. Dalton may not be the most gifted quarterback, and he can't carry his offense, but he's an experienced veteran with deep West Coast roots, like Jets offensive coordinator Jeremy Bates. A timing offense can be built around Dalton, while New York general manager Mike Maccagnan continues to improve the rest of the roster Bleacher Report What do you think about this?

Kleckineau Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Bengals have found ways to lose despite Dalton being pretty good. McCarron is a good but weak armed back up QB. Dalton gets resigned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Bengal fans will beg for Dalton back as their starter (and I'm not Dalton fan either btw) once they see AJ Mccarron on a regular basis. And for the record, I don't want Dalton on the Jets either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 80% of NFL teams the back up QB is almost always the most popular QB on the team......... until he plays a lot........ and other teams figure them out.

Ohio State NY Jets fan Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Dalton or AJ would be an upgrade for the Jets and I think one of them will shake free once Cousins signs, also think Bridgewater or Keenum will hit the market at some point too, How would you rank them?

sourceworx Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 I wouldn't mind bringing in Mccarron if we don't get Cousins. I actually think he can be solid starter if given the chance. If the Jets do go that route, I think they should also draft a QB early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScarletKnight89 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Andy Dalton isn't a franchise QB. He only makes sense to sign if you are also going to draft a QB in the 1st round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers9 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 I don't think they'll cut him. There should be a market for him if they decide to go with McCarron. That's questionable since they tried trading him to the Browns during the season and it didn't go through because it was posted too late. Dalton is on a moderate starter's contract http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/cincinnati-bengals/andy-dalton-7750/ through 2020. For the Jets it's worth looking into if they think he's worth committing to.

Rangers9 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 The deal with Dalton is he usually had a good offense to work with and they had no playoff success. I think he's ok and you aren't going to get anybody much better than him and the salary for him is moderate. But he has 3 more seasons on his contract and the Jets might not want to commit to him for that long. If they sign him then you don't draft a Qb at no. 1. You would assume Dalton would be the starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you take a close look at those wins in the last 5 games? A distraught Bears team with more injuries than an entire division combined 15-14. Houston, flip flopping between Yates and Savage, no Watt, no Mercillus 26-16. Titans 23-25. I guess you could say good win? But McCown also beat 4 playoff teams. Jaguars, look it up. Jags did not have 1 healthy WR for this game. Not 1. 44-33. Rams, Los Angeles sat every star player & started Sean Mannion at QB. 34-13. Based on these 5 games, Garapolo just became the highest paid player in the NFL. Sure he won 3 games subbing for Brady but Matt Cassel went 11-5 too.

Rangers9 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 If I'm the Chiefs I go after McCown from day 1 of free agency. They will need an experienced and smart Qb like him to back up Mahomes. I'm not against us signing him either esp if we draft a Qb in round 1. But the Jets might have to make a fast decision on him because there are other teams who can use him, too.

Never in an offseason have the Jets had do many options. Of course some are better than others & some (the draft) are complete unknowns but put the list together. Cousins? Keenum? Bridgewater? Bradford? Dalton if cut? Taylor if cut? Mccarron in a trade? Foles in a trade. At 6 in the draft, maybe Allen, Mayfield, Jackson or trade up for Darnold or Rosen. With 2 picks in the 2nd maybe White, Rudolph or Lauletta? Of this I am sure. The Jets have NEVER had the opportunity of this many QB options. Lets pray Macc gets it right. With all the differing opinions on this board it's not easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me it's a question of money. I can't see paying Cousins 2x what we would pay Dalton and 4x what you'd pay McCown. If Cousins is better he's not that much better.
