He played below average for more than half of the season, and that's with a zillion defenders in the box attempting to shut down Richardson and Lacy.

Lots of QBs with NFL tools get taken in the 2nd-4th rounds. They do so because their tape sucks.

What's encouraging is that he was trending upward. His best games last season were his last two: at Auburn and vs LSU in the BCS title game.

I think you are a little harsh on McCarron. Think about this: he only gets to throw when that running game isn't rolling like clockwork and he hardly ever gets to develop a rhythm. Just my take, but those are two bad circumstances under which to be expected to perform against SEC competition.
