He was very raw coming out of college. Thats why so many teams passed on him. He was picked with the 24th pick. At least 4 teams passed on him.

Rodgers would've been ready to start earlier than he did, and as much has been stated by numerous talkinghead NFL experts in the past.

Who were you expecting? Aaron Rodgers?

John Skelton maybe.

All we need is a guy who could step in for a series or two. Anything more than that and there's not a back-up in the league who'd offer much more than McCown does.

He's gonna hold a clipboard and place the ball for kicks.

Pat Yasinskas‏@espn_nfcsouth#Saints got QB Luke McCown for a song. Has $840K base salary. But minimum benefit means he'll only count $555,000 toward the cap.
Thats cheaper than a draft pick.

Re: Luke McCown Signed (1 year)
 
That's very cheap, especially considering that Daniel would've counted around six times as much against the cap, if he would've been re-signed to a similar contract he got from the Chiefs.

He's probably lighting more candles for Drew's health than we are.

Actually, Drew Brees kinda sucked until his 4th year. And few would've called him a "franchise" QB until he became a Saint.
