McQuay is a hell of an athlete and if you can sneak him through to the PS that's probably ideal. You'd love to try to mold some of that clay but unless you're moving Murray back to CB, there's just no room for McQuay.
I still can't figure out why they threw the money at Sorenson that they did. This organization does a damn nice job finding/developing safeties and suddenly they feel the need to spend $4 million/season on a 3rd safety/nickle linebacker.
I guess they could get out of it as early as next year if they wanted to - they backloaded that base salary so much that just eating the remaining $3 million in signing bonus to clear about $1.8 million off the cap is feasible (his number is at $4.8 if he's on the squad), but it seems unlikely.
Just a strange deal for a part-time player at a position that wasn't exactly thin (especially when he's a bit of a liability if Parker or Berry were to go down, making him not exactly a true backup either).
