A. J. McCarron

6 ft 3
strong, accurate arm.
Only 10 INT's in 3 plus seasons, despite playing in a boat load of big games.
2 National Championships (probably a 3rd this year).
Team leader.
Has been best in his teams biggest games despite his teams run first philosophy.

He is a solid passer now but at the next level he will be even better because a team will spend more time developing him as a passer. Sort of like what happened to Joe Montana. At Notre Dame, for 3 years as the Irish QB, he averaged about 15 passes a game. But at the next level that sort of changed a little bit.
Not sure about the context of the Cam Newton discussion but sure... I probably said I would take Cam over an old Ben moving forward. ROY, most passing yards by a QB in his first 2 years.. won today vs the Giants 38-0. Mobile can avoid pressure and extend plays and drives... yep, I probably said it.

I damn sure would take him over AJ or that USC stud who was supposed to change the draft after his work out.
