Cousins' Kubiak familiarity and Mendoza-sitting scenario create dirt-cheap QB depth.

Cousins is available at a dirt-cheap price (ECR: QB41) as a buy-low candidate despite entering his age-36 season and showing clear decline. However, he's playing in a familiar scheme with Klint Kubiak calling plays—the two worked together with the Vikings. The Raiders want Fernando Mendoza to sit for most of the season, though the source expresses skepticism about this plan actually happening. If Mendoza does sit, Cousins becomes a veteran quarterback at a bargain price throwing to Brock Bowers and handing off to Ashton Jeanty. For contenders seeking quarterback depth, Cousins makes sense at his current cost.
