Here's what McCown is: A journeyman, now with his seventh team, who has yet to start 16 games in a single season. McCown's statistically dominant five-start run with the Bears in 2013 helped land him on our Making the Leap list one summer ago, but his hyper-shaky run with the Bucs left him unemployed by March. On the plus side, McCown is an outstanding leader who quickly won over his Browns teammates and gives coaches a plugged-in presence. I'd call him an upgrade over Brian Hoyer, but McCown remains the dictionary definition of a stopgap.
