AJ McCarron to the Buffalo Bills
We’ve seen what Kirk Cousins, Case Keenum and Sam Bradford can do, and Teddy Bridgewater’s knee might prevent him from becoming the quarterback many expected. With that in mind, AJ McCarron just might have had the highest potential ceiling among all of the signal-callers on this year’s free-agent market. authentic nfl jerseys cheap
The Bills landed McCarron—healthy, 27 years old and with nearly all the tread on his tires—for only a two-year, $10 million commitment.
Yes, Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio reports that number could increase to $16.5 million if McCarron hits a slew of incentives, but that would be a good thing for Buffalo. It would probably mean the McCarron experiment has been a success. nfl jerseys for cheap And don’t be surprised if that happens, because the former Alabama star has been one of the best backups in football the last four years, and he put up impressive numbers in relief of Andy Dalton in Cincinnati.
All we know right now is the Cleveland Browns are expected to sign running back Carlos Hyde to a three-year, $15 million contract, per Rapoport. That could be a reasonable deal or a terrible one, depending on the guaranteed money. But until we have that number we’ll give the Browns the benefit of the doubt and suppose that they’re only committing to the 27-year-old for a year or two.
So long as that’s the case, this isn’t a bad move for a cap-rich team that could use help in the offensive backfield.cheap nfl jerseys
Hyde is not going to single-handedly turn this downtrodden franchise around. He’s never had a 1,000-yard season, and he averaged just 3.9 yards per carry in 2017. Per Renner, the 27-year-old “allowed more pressures (13) and dropped more balls (nine) than any other running back” last season.
So don’t expect this to stop Cleveland from pursuing a hot running back prospect like Saquon Barkley in nfl jersey cheap the draft.
There’s always a chance Hyde could bloom late a la Mark Ingram in New Orleans, in which case this would look like a genius move. Right now, though, it’s at least a low-risk signing.
