SB Nation excerpted the ESPN piece, which requires Insider privileges to read in its entirety.

When pressed into action, AJ McCarron has shown himself to be a suitable starter. He played in seven regular-season games (three starts) in 2015, completing 66.4 percent of his passes with six touchdowns and two interceptions. He wasn't as good in his lone playoff start -- his Total QBR was just 36.7 -- but the potential is there. Don't be surprised if, as a restricted free agent in 2018, McCarron is a trade target for a quarterback-needy team.
What are your thoughts on this ranking? How many NFL teams might McCarron start for if he weren’t a Bengal?
