#9. Luke McCown
Age: 32
Stats: Career backup (9 starts)
A good fit if…. All the other backups are taken
Luke McCown is a younger, less serviceable version of his older brother. He will find his way onto a team as a backup, but there are better options that a guy who is 32 years old with just 317 passing attempts to his name. I don’t think the career backup’s NFL days are over so expect him to wind up at a training camp and making a team’s roster somewhere next season.
Rating: 2.5
Chances of landing in Oakland: 5%
